Hyperbolic volume of 3-d manifolds, A-polynomials, numerical hypothesis testing
Abstract:
We continue our study of the connections between the hyperbolic volume of the complement of a knot in the three dimensional sphere with topological invariants of this knot. This time we pay attention to A(M,L) parametrization for the affine variety with casp, produced by a knot (so-called A-polynomials). Then, using the known expressions of A-polynomials for number of knots we present results of the numerical tests for the conjectures on asymptotics of solutions of q-difference equations connected with the hyperbolic volume of these knots.
