Twisted torus knots and links are given by twisting adjacent strands of a torus link. They are geometrically simple and contain many examples of the smallest volume hyperbolic knots. Many are also Lorenz links. We study the geometry of…

Let $r_k(s, e; t)$ denote the smallest $N$ such that any red/blue edge coloring of the complete $k$-uniform hypergraph on $N$ vertices contains either $e$ red edges among some $s$ vertices, or a blue clique of size $t$. Erd\H os and Hajnal…

In this paper, we generalize the Cosmetic Surgery Conjecture to an $n$-cusped hyperbolic $3$-manifold and prove it under the assumption of another well-known conjecture in number theory, so called the Zilber-Pink Conjecture. For $n=1$ and…

The optimistic limit is the mathematical formulation of the classical limit which is a physical method to expect the actual limit by using saddle point method of certain potential function. The original optimistic limit of the Kashaev…

We consider random trigonometric polynomials of the form \[ f_n(x,y)=\sum_{1\le k,l \le n} a_{k,l} \cos(kx) \cos(ly), \] where the entries $(a_{k,l})_{k,l\ge 1}$ are i.i.d. random variables that are centered with unit variance. We…

We propose the Volume Conjecture for the relative Reshetikhin-Turaev invariants of a closed oriented $3$-manifold with a colored framed link inside it whose asymptotic behavior is related to the volume and the Chern-Simons invariant of the…

We formulate a conjecture about the structure of `upper lines' in the expansion of the colored Jones polynomial of a knot in powers of (q-1). The Melvin-Morton conjecture states that the bottom line in this expansion is equal to the inverse…

In 2015, Chen and Yang proposed a volume conjecture that stated that certain Turaev-Viro invariants of an hyperbolic 3-manifold should grow exponentially with a rate equal to the hyperbolic volume. Since then, this conjecture has been…

We prove the convex combination theorem for hyperbolic n-manifolds. Applications are given both in high dimensions and in 3 dimensions. One consequence is that given two geometrically finite subgroups of a discrete group of isometries of…

We show that, for hyperbolic fibred knots in the three-sphere, the volume and the genus are unrelated. Furthermore, for such knots, the volume is unrelated to strong quasipositivity and Seifert form.

We propose a finite dimensional variational principle on triangulated 3-manifolds so that its critical points are related to solutions to Thurston's gluing equation and Haken's normal surface equation. The action functional is the volume.…

We investigate the conjectural relations between the Reshetikhin-Turaev-Witten quantum SU(2) invariants and the volume of hyperbolic 3-manifolds. Given a finite set of sufficiently large positive integers, say J, we construct examples of…

We establish the second part of Milnor's conjecture on the volume of simplexes in hyperbolic and spherical spaces. A characterization of the closure of the space of the angle Gram matrices of simplexes is also obtained.

For $n \ge 2$, we prove that a finite volume complex hyperbolic $n$-manifold containing infinitely many maximal properly immersed totally geodesic submanifolds of dimension at least two is arithmetic, paralleling our previous work for real…

The Kneser-Poulsen conjecture says that if a finite collection of balls in a Euclidean (spherical or hyperbolic) space is rearranged so that the distance between each pair of centers does not increase, then the volume of the union of these…

We observe that the strong slope conjecture implies that the degree of the colored Jones polynomial detects all torus knots. As an application we obtain that an adequate knot that has the same colored Jones polynomial degrees as a torus…

Garoufalidis conjectured a relation between the boundary slopes of a knot and its colored Jones polynomials. According to the conjecture, certain boundary slopes are detected by the sequence of degrees of the colored Jones polynomials. We…

We introduce a generalized FAMED property for ideal triangulations of hyperbolic knot complements in $\mathbb{S}^3$. Given a hyperbolic knot $K$ in $\mathbb{S}^3$ and a semi-geometric triangulation $X$ of $\mathbb{S}^3 \setminus K$ that is…

We consider a simple but infinite class of staked links known as bongles. We provide necessary and sufficient conditions for these bongles to be hyperbolic. Then, we prove that all balanced hyperbolic $n$-bongles have the same volume and…

We compute the real part of the semi-classical limit of the sequence of quantum hyperbolic invariants (QHI) of the figure-eight knot complement $M$. We show that it is rigid, in the sense that it does not depend on the choice of holonomy…
