The higher-rank torus-knot tail conjecture for p<rp<r

Let 2p<p2\leq p<p' be coprime positive integers, let 2r2\leq r with p<rp<r, and let T(p,p)T(p,p') be the (p,p)(p,p') torus knot. Let Lr(nΛ1)L_r(n\Lambda_1) denote the irreducible slr\mathfrak{sl}_r-representation of highest weight nΛ1n\Lambda_1, let J^T(p,p)\widehat{J}_{T(p,p')} be the normalized coloured invariant used in the paper, let δr\delta_r be the Weyl vector of slr\mathfrak{sl}_r, and let Φ0+=Φ1+=\Phi^+_0=\Phi^+_1=\emptyset. The higher-rank torus-knot tail conjecture.

limnJ^T(p,p)(Lr(nΛ1))=αΦrp+(1q(α,δrp))αΦr+(1q(α,δr))(q;q)p1χ0,0p,p,p.\lim_{n\rightarrow\infty}\widehat{J}_{T(p,p')}(L_r(n\Lambda_1))=\dfrac{\prod_{\alpha\in\Phi^{+}_{r-p}}(1-q^{(\alpha,\delta_{r-p})})}{\prod_{\alpha\in\Phi^{+}_{r}}(1-q^{(\alpha,\delta_{r})})}(q;q)^{p-1}_\infty\cdot\overline{\chi}^{p,p,p'}_{0,0}.

The conjecture extends the pattern observed in the cases r=pr=p and in computer experiments for r=3,4,5r=3,4,5 with p<rp<r; the supplied text does not establish it for the general range stated.
