We give formulas for the N-colored Jones polynomials of doubles of knots by using skein theory. As a corollary, we show that if the volume conjecture for untwisted positive (or negative) doubles of knots is true, then the colored Jones polynomial detects the unknot.

It is known that the colored Jones polynomial of a [Formula: see text]-adequate link has a well-defined tail consisting of stable coefficients, and that the coefficients of the tail carry geometric and topological information on the [Formula: see text]-adequate link complement. We show that a power series similar to the tail of the colored Jones polynomial for [Formula: see text]-adequate links can be defined for all links, and that it is trivial if and only if the link is non [Formula: see text]-adequate.

We prove that the N-colored Jones polynomial for the torus knot [Formula: see text] satisfies the second order difference equation, which reduces to the first order difference equation for a case of [Formula: see text]. We show that the A-polynomial of the torus knot can be derived from the difference equation. Also constructed is a q-hypergeometric type expression of the colored Jones polynomial for [Formula: see text].

Using the colored Kauffman skein relation, we study the highest and lowest [Formula: see text] coefficients of the [Formula: see text] unreduced colored Jones polynomial of alternating links. This gives a natural extension of a result by Kauffman in regard with the Jones polynomial of alternating links and its highest and lowest coefficients. We also use our techniques to give a new and natural proof for the existence of the tail of the colored Jones polynomial for alternating links.

Bing doubling is a satellite operation on links which replaces a knot component with a 2-component link in a certain way. In this paper we give a formula for the reduced colored Jones polynomial of a Bing double in terms of that of the companion. Using this formula we derive a divisibility property of the unified Witten–Reshetikhin–Turaev invariant of integral homology spheres obtained by ±1-surgery along Bing doubles of knots. This result is applied to the Witten–Reshetikhin–Turaev invariant and the Ohtsuki series of these integral homology spheres.

The potential function of the optimistic limit of the colored Jones polynomial and the construction of the solution of the hyperbolicity equations were defined in the authors’ previous papers. In this paper, we define the Reidemeister transformations of the potential function and the solution by the changes of them under the Reidemeister moves of the link diagram and show the explicit formulas. These two formulas enable us to see the changes of the complex volume formula under the Reidemeister moves. As an application, we can simply specify the discrete faithful representation of the link group by showing a link diagram and one geometric solution.
