Complexified volume conjecture for hyperbolic knots and links
Let be a hyperbolic knot or link, so that admits a hyperbolic structure. Let be the normalized colored Jones polynomial at , and let denote the hyperbolic volume of . Let be times the Chern–Simons invariant , where is a real number between and . Complexified volume conjecture. For a hyperbolic knot or link ,
This refines the ordinary volume conjecture by incorporating the Chern–Simons invariant into a complex asymptotic. The supplied text does not state whether this conjecture has been resolved.
