Irrationality conjecture for the cusp translation parameter of hyperbolic knot representations
Let be a hyperbolic knot in , let be the relevant component of the -representation variety, and let and denote the meridian and longitude. For an irreducible representation such that and are parabolic, choose a conjugation in which
where . Irrationality conjecture. One has
The claim concerns the cusp translation parameter associated with a parabolic peripheral representation of a hyperbolic knot. The supplied source does not indicate whether this conjecture has been resolved.
