| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The purpose of this research was to give an answer to a conjecture of Dunfiled, Friedl and Jackson on the genus and fiberedness of a hyperbolic knot. To this end, we used information on a certain slice of the character variety of the knot group and the twisted Alexander polynomial. The results are as follows.
(1) We showed that 2-bridge knots are classified by the defining polynomial of parabolic representations of the knot group.
(2) We gave an affirmative answer to a conjecture of Dunfiled, Friedl and Jackson for a hyperbolic pretzel knot with length three.
