Strong Gordon conjecture for the figure-8 knot complement

A non-hyperbolic Dehn filling is a Dehn filling of a 11-cusped hyperbolic 33-manifold that does not remain hyperbolic. Strong Gordon conjecture. The figure-88 knot complement is the unique 11-cusped hyperbolic 33-manifold which realizes the maximal number of non-hyperbolic Dehn fillings. This is proposed as a strong form of the Gordon conjecture, building on the theorem that a one-cusped hyperbolic 33-manifold has at most 1010 non-hyperbolic Dehn fillings; uniqueness of the maximizer remains open in the source.
