AbstractWe construct motivic invariants of a subvariety of an algebraic torus from its tropicalization and initial degenerations. More specifically, we introduce an invariant of a compactification of such a variety called the ‘tropical motivic nearby fiber’. This invariant specializes in the schön case to the Hodge–Deligne polynomial of the limit mixed Hodge structure of a corresponding degeneration. We give purely combinatorial expressions for this Hodge–Deligne polynomial in the cases of schön hypersurfaces and matroidal tropical varieties. We also deduce a formula for the Euler characteristic of a general fiber of the degeneration.

We give a method to find ideal points of the character variety of a 3-manifold with toral boundary. This can be easily carried out by using linear algebra.

Closed hyperbolic 3-manifolds obtained by Dehn surgeries on the Whitehead link yield interesting examples of manifolds of small volume. In the present paper these manifolds are described as 2-fold coverings of the 3-sphere branched over 3-bridge links. As a corollary, maximally symmetric [Formula: see text]-manifolds of small volume are obtained.

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.
