Abstract
The Slope Conjecture and the Strong Slope Conjecture predict that the degree of the colored Jones polynomial of a knot is matched by the boundary slope and the Euler characteristic of some essential surfaces in the knot complement. By solving a problem of quadratic integer programming to find the maximal degree and using the Hatcher–Oertel edgepath system to find the corresponding essential surface, we verify the Slope Conjectures for a family of 3-string Montesinos knots satisfying certain conditions.
