The twisted 1-loop invariant and the Jacobian of Ptolemy coordinates

Seokbeom Yoon

Abstract

We present an alternative definition of the twisted 1-loop invariant in terms of the Jacobian of Ptolemy coordinates. As an application, we prove that the twisted 1-loop invariant is equal to the adjoint twisted Alexander polynomial for all hyperbolic once-punctured torus bundles. This implies that the 1-loop conjecture proposed by Dimofte and Garoufalidis holds for all hyperbolic once-punctured torus bundles.

Key Result

Theorem 1.3

The twisted 1-loop invariant $\tau^\mathrm{CS}(\mathcal{T}_\varphi,t)$ equals to the adjoint twisted Alexander polynomial $\tau(M_\varphi,t)$ of $M_\varphi$ for all hyperbolic once-punctured torus bundles $M_\varphi$.
