Abstract

Abstract In this paper, we explicitly calculate the highest degree term of the hyperbolic torsion polynomial of an infinite family of pretzel knots. This gives supporting evidence for a conjecture of Dunfield, Friedl and Jackson that the hyperbolic torsion polynomial determines the genus and fiberedness of a hyperbolic knot. The verification of the genus part of the conjecture for this family of knots also follows from the work of Agol and Dunfield [1] or Porti [19].
