Then there is an algebraic integer $s_0$ such that for any $K$ in $H(p)$, $G$ has a parabolic representation $ρ$ into $SL(2, Z[s_0]) \subset SL(2,C)$. Let $Δ(t)$ be the twisted Alexander polynomial associated to $ρ$. Then we prove that for any $K$ in $H(p)$, $Δ(1)=-2s_0^{-1}$ and $Δ(-1)=-2s_0^{-1}μ^2$, where $s_0^{-1}, μ\in Z[s_0]$. The number $μ$ can be recursively evaluated.Geometric Topology57M25text
