On the zeroes of the Alexander polynomial of a Lorenz knot
[Sur les racines du polynome d’Alexander d’un nœud de Lorenz]
Annales de l'Institut Fourier, Tome 65 (2015) no. 2, pp. 509-548.

On montre que les racines du polynome d’Alexander d’un nœud de Lorenz sont situées dans un anneau dont l’épaisseur dépend explicitement du genre et de l’indice de tresse du nœud considéré.

We show that the zeroes of the Alexander polynomial of a Lorenz knot all lie in some annulus whose width depends explicitly on the genus and the braid index of the considered knot.
