Rational-real-part conjecture for cusp shapes of equal-volume fillings

Let MM be a 11-cusped hyperbolic 33-manifold. A rational-real-part cusp shape means that the cusp shape has rational real part for some choice of basis m,l\mathbf{m},\mathbf{l} of H1(T2)H_1(T^2). Rational-real-part conjecture. If

volM(p,q)=volM(p,q)\operatorname{vol} M(p,q)=\operatorname{vol} M(p',q')

for distinct Dehn fillings with sufficiently large p+q|p|+|q|, then the cusp shape is a rational-real-part cusp shape. The conjecture predicts that sufficiently large distinct Dehn fillings with equal volume can occur only when a suitable change of peripheral basis makes the cusp shape's real part rational. The source derives this conjecture from the preceding cusp-shape norm conjecture and gives experimental examples with rational real parts; no resolution is stated.
