A conjecture of Chinburg-Reid-Stover for surgeries on twist knots

Abstract

Associated to a hyperbolic knot complement in S3 is a set of prime numbers corresponding to the residue characteristics of the ramified places of the quaternion algebras obtained by Dehn surgery on the knots. Previous work by Chinburg-Reid-Stover gives conditions on the Alexander polynomial of the knot for this set to be finite. We show that there are infinitely many examples of knots for which this set is infinite, providing evidence for a conjecture of Chinburg-Reid-Stover.
