    This paper surveys the connection between BPS structures and free energies produced by the topological recursion. The main result of the paper is to express the free energies computed by the topological recursion applied to classical spectral curves of hypergeometric types in term a prefactor involving the Bernoulli numbers and a sum over BPS states that is computed explicitly in terms of the coefficients of the classical spectral curve. The term involving the Bernoulli numbers is not new and is directly connected to the normalization of the topological recursion partition function by contrast with the one corresponding to the BPS states. This result may be seen as a good example of applications of topological recursion regarding enumerative geometry. It is a first step towards rewriting dealing the Borel resumation of quantities produced by topological recursion producing Stokes phenomenon and very interesting analytic structures. The natural question left opened in the article is to wonder if the present results can be generalized to any classical spectral curves of genus 0 with or without additional properties. The methods presented in this article are definitely of interests and require attention for people interested in that perspective.
