abstract

The invariant of a link in three-sphere, associated with the cyclic quantum dilogarithm, depends on a natural number $N$. By the analysis of particular examples it is argued that for a hyperbolic knot (link) the absolute value of this invariant grows exponentially at large $N$, the hyperbolic volume of the knot (link) complement being the growth rate.

Two roles of Alexander in two Kashaev phases

hep-th · 2026-05-29 · unverdicted · novelty 5.0

Alexander polynomials appear in two opposite roles in two Kashaev phases of Chern-Simons theory due to co-existing branches in the quasiclassical limit with non-trivial versus vanishing classical actions.

hep-th · 2026-06-23 · unverdicted · novelty 3.0

In the Kashaev limit the non-homogeneous quantum A-polynomial splits into phases tied to zero action and deformed hyperbolic volume, with a byproduct expectation that the classical A-polynomial at L=1 is proportional to the Alexander polynomial.
