Generalized Jørgensen trace inequality under displacement hypotheses

Let Γ=ξ1,ξ2,,ξn\Gamma=\langle\xi_1,\xi_2,\dots,\xi_n\rangle, and let αn\alpha_n be as described in the generalized Jørgensen conjecture. For i1i\ne1, define

Φn=Γ\on{ξ1,ξ11,ξi1ξ1ξi,ξi1ξ11ξi,ξiξ1ξi1,ξiξ11ξi1}.\Phi_n=\Gamma_{\o}^n-\{\xi_1,\xi_1^{-1},\xi_i^{-1}\xi_1\xi_i,\xi_i^{-1}\xi_1^{-1}\xi_i,\xi_i\xi_1\xi_i^{-1},\xi_i\xi_1^{-1}\xi_i^{-1}\}.

Let z1z_1 and z2z_2 be the midpoints of the shortest geodesic segments connecting the axes of ξ1\xi_1 to the axes of ξiξ1ξi1\xi_i\xi_1\xi_i^{-1} and ξi1ξ1ξi\xi_i^{-1}\xi_1\xi_i, respectively. Assume that there exists an isometry ξi\xi_i, with i1i\ne1, such that

dξiξ1ξi1z2dξiξ1ξi1z1d_{\xi_i\xi_1\xi_i^{-1}}z_2\leq d_{\xi_i\xi_1\xi_i^{-1}}z_1

and

dγz2<12logαnd_\gamma z_2<\tfrac{1}{2}\log\alpha_n

for every isometry γΦn\gamma\in\Phi_n. Generalized Jørgensen trace conjecture. Under these assumptions,

trace2(ξ1)4+trace(ξ1ξiξ11ξi1)22sinh2(14logαn).|\operatorname{trace}^2(\xi_1)-4|+|\operatorname{trace}(\xi_1\xi_i\xi_1^{-1}\xi_i^{-1})-2|\geq2\sinh^2\left(\tfrac{1}{4}\log\alpha_n\right).

This is presented as a consequence of the preceding conjectural displacement bound and would generalize the corresponding two-generator trace inequality. The source explicitly says that the displacement conjecture and analogous arguments imply this result.
