Outline of Final Research Achievements |
A hyperbolic knot group G has a representation to PSL(2,C), which is called holonomy representation. We focused on a representation G ->SL(n,C) obtained from the holonomy representation by the extension, and then we studied the twisted Alexander polynomials associated with the representation.
We have calculated the twisted Alexander polynomials for the figure eight knot and the Whitehead link. Using the results, we have obtained a formula of the volume of a hyperbolic link complement using the twisted Alexander polynomial.

Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements |
体積は幾何学において極めて重要な基本概念であり,アレキサンダー多項式は結び目理論において最も重要だと考えられる結び目の多項式不変量である.ねじれアレキサンダー多項式はアレキサンダー多項式を精密な形に拡張したものであり,本研究にて得られたねじれアレキサンダー多項式を用いて双曲結び目補空間の体積を記述する明示公式は結び目研究の歴史に残る公式である.
