Murakami–Murakami simplicial-volume conjecture for links

Let LL be a link, and let JN(L;t)J'_{\vec N}(L;t) denote the normalized colored Jones polynomial with color vector N=(N,,N)\vec N=(N,\dots,N). Then

Murakami–Murakami simplicial-volume conjecture.

limN2πNlogJN(L;e2πiN)=v3S3L.\lim_{N\to\infty}\frac{2\pi}{N}\log\left|J'_{\vec N}\left(L;e^{\frac{2\pi i}{N}}\right)\right|=v_3\left\|\mathbb S^3\setminus L\right\|.

Here S3L\left\|\mathbb S^3\setminus L\right\| is the simplicial volume of the link complement and v3v_3 is the volume of an ideal regular tetrahedron. The conjecture extends the hyperbolic-knot volume conjecture to arbitrary links; the source gives no resolution.
