Asymptotic state-integral conjecture for geometrically nondegenerate representations
Asymptotic state-integral conjecture for geometrically nondegenerate representations
Let be a hyperbolic knot, let be an open diagram of , and let be a decorated representation of that is geometrically nondegenerate, meaning that is non-pinched for . For a choice of log-meridian , let denote the corresponding quantum invariant, and let be the normalized Chern--Simons invariant of the complete hyperbolic structure. Asymptotic state-integral conjecture. For some choices of , there is a constant such that
This is the proposed saddle-point asymptotic after accounting for the gauge-symmetry directions of the critical manifold. The supplied text presents it as a conjectural conclusion and gives no evidence that it has been proved or disproved.
