The eventual monotonicity conjecture for colored Jones growth
For a knot in , define the sequence
where is the colored Jones polynomial. The eventual monotonicity conjecture. For every knot in , the sequence is eventually decreasing and bounded above by zero. This conjecture would provide a useful clue toward proving existence of the limit in the Volume Conjecture, but the source gives no resolution.
