The Vol-Det Conjecture for highly twisted alternating links

The Vol-Det Conjecture, formulated by Champanerkar, Kofman and Purcell, states that there exists a specific inequality connecting the hyperbolic volume of an alternating link and its determinant. Among the classes of links for which this conjecture holds are all alternating hyperbolic knots with at most 16 crossings, 2-bridge links, and links that are closures of 3-strand braids. In the present paper, Burton's bound on the number of crossings for which the Vol-Det Conjecture holds is improved for links with more than eight twists. In addition, Stoimenow's inequalities between hyperbolic volumes and determinants are improved for alternating and alternating arborescent links with more than eight twists.

On volumes of hyperbolic right-angled polyhedra

In this paper we obtain new upper bounds on volumes of right-angled polyhedra in hyperbolic space $\mathbb{H}^3$ in three different cases: for ideal polyhedra with all vertices on the ideal hyperbolic boundary, for compact polytopes with only finite (or usual) vertices, and for finite volume polyhedra with vertices of both types.
