Large-parameter cc-stability for a family of 2-bridge knots

Let

rm=[2,2,,2m1,2k,2,2,,2m].r_m=[\underbrace{2,2,\dots,2}_{m-1},2k,\underbrace{-2,-2,\dots,-2}_{m}].

Large-parameter stability conjecture. There exists a positive integer NmN_m such that: if mm is even, then K(rm)K(r_m) is cc-stable for kNmk\geq N_m; and if mm is odd, then K(rm)K(r_m) is cc-stable for kNmk\leq-N_m. The claim predicts eventual unit-circle location of the Alexander-polynomial zeros in this explicit family.
