Asymptotic Behaviors of the Colored Jones Polynomials of a Torus Knot

چکیده
Let K be a knot in the three-sphere and JN (K; t) the colored Jones polynomial corresponding to the N -dimensional representation of sl2(C) normalized so that JN (unknot; t) = 1 [8, 12]. R. Kashaev found a series of link invariants parameterized by positive integers [9] and proposed a conjecture that the asymptotic behavior of his invariants would determine the hyperbolic volume of the knot complement for any hyperbolic knot [10]. It turned out [19] that Kashaev’s invariant with parameter

Some Limits of the Colored Jones Polynomials of the Figure-eight Knot
We will study the asymptotic behaviors of the colored Jones poly-nomials of the figure-eight knot. In particular we will show that for certain limits we obtain the volumes of the cone manifolds with singularities along the knot.
متن کاملDifference Equation of the Colored Jones Polynomial for Torus Knot
The N-colored Jones polynomial JK (N) is one of the quantum invariants for knot K . It is associated with the N-dimensional irreducible representation of sl(2), and is powerful to classify knots. Motivated by “volume conjecture” [12, 18] saying that a hyperbolic volume of the knot complement dominates an asymptotic behavior of the colored Jones polynomial JK (N) at q = e2πi/N , it receives much...
متن کاملAsymptotics of the Colored Jones Polynomial and the A-polynomial
The N-colored Jones polynomial JK (N) is a quantum invariant which is defined based on the N-dimensional irreducible representation of the quantum group Uq(sl(2)). Motivated by Volume Conjecture raised by Kashaev [16], it was pointed out that the colored Jones polynomial at a specific value should be related to the hyperbolic volume of knot complement [21]. As another example of the knot invari...
متن کاملDifference and Differential Equations for the Colored Jones Function
The colored Jones function of a knot is a sequence of Laurent polynomials. It was shown by TTQ. Le and the author that such sequences are q-holonomic, that is, they satisfy linear q-difference equations with coefficients Laurent polynomials in q and qn. We show from first principles that q-holonomic sequences give rise to modules over a q-Weyl ring. Frohman-Gelca-LoFaro have identified the latt...
متن کاملProof of the volume conjecture for Whitehead doubles of a family of torus knots
A technique to calculate the colored Jones polynomials of satellite knots, illustrated by the Whitehead doubles of knots, is presented. Then we prove the volume conjecture for Whitehead doubles of a family of torus knots and show some interesting observations.
