The slope conjecture relates the degree of the colored Jones polynomial of a knot to boundary slopes of essential surfaces. We develop a general approach that matches a state-sum formula for the colored Jones polynomial with the parameters that describe surfaces in the complement. We apply this to Montesinos knots proving the slope conjecture for Montesinos knots, with some restrictions.more » « less
