Abstract: Three-manifold invariants $hatZ$ ($Z$-hat), also known as homological blocks, are $q$-series with integer coefficients. Explicit $q$-series form for $hatZ$ is known for $SU(2)$ group, supergroup $SU(2|1)$ and ortho-symplectic supergroup $OSp(2|2)$. We focus on $hatZ$ for $SO(3)$ group and orthosymplectic supergroup $OSp(1|2)$ in this paper. Particularly, the change of variable relating $SU(2)$ link invariants to the $SO(3)$ & $OSp(1|2)$ link invariants plays a crucial role in explicitly writing the $q$-series.
