Dominance of the complete-structure sector in the Turaev–Viro sum

Let KK be a hyperbolic knot, let UU be the neighborhood of s=1s=1 appearing in the parametrized colored-Jones conjecture, and set s=M/(N+1/2)s=M/(N+1/2). For a sequence aNa_N, write aN=o(bN)a_N=o(b_N) when limNaN/bN=0\lim_{N\to\infty}a_N/b_N=0.

Complete-structure dominance conjecture. The colored Jones terms with sUs\in U dominate those with sUs\notin U:

M:sUJM(K,e2πiN+1/2)2=o(M:sUJM(K,e2πiN+1/2)2).\sum_{M:s\notin U}\left|J_M\left(K,e^{\frac{2\pi i}{N+1/2}}\right)\right|^2=o\left(\sum_{M:s\in U}\left|J_M\left(K,e^{\frac{2\pi i}{N+1/2}}\right)\right|^2\right).

This is intended to express that contributions away from the complete hyperbolic structure are exponentially smaller and may be neglected in the Turaev–Viro asymptotics. The supplied text gives motivation from Thurston's volume comparison but no proof for general hyperbolic knots.
