Abstract: We generalize the $F_K$ invariant, i.e. $widehatZ$ for the complement of a knot $K$ in the 3-sphere, the knots-quivers correspondence, and $A$-polynomials of knots, and find several interconnections between them. We associate an $F_K$ invariant to any branch of the $A$-polynomial of $K$ and we work out explicit expressions for several simple knots. We show that these $F_K$ invariants can be written in the form of a quiver generating series, in analogy with the knots-quivers correspondence. We discuss various methods to obtain such quiver representations, among others using $R$-matrices. We generalize the quantum $a$-deformed $A$-polynomial to an ideal that contains the recursion relation in the group rank, i.e. in the parameter $a$, and describe its classical limit in terms of the Coulomb branch of a 3d-5d theory. We also provide $t$-deformed versions. Furthermore, we study how the quiver formulation for closed 3-manifolds obtained by surgery leads to the superpotential of 3d $mathcalN=2$ theory $T[M_3]$ and to the data of the associated modular tensor category $extMTC[M_3]$.
