Once-punctured torus bundles are a well-studied class of hyperbolic 3-manifolds, but unfortunately I have been unable to find out whether they always have integral traces (in the sense of [1], Def. 5.2.1). Is this already known?
In several dozens of examples that I have calculated with the help of Snappy or the approach in [2], this seems to be the case. Moreover, for bundles with monodromy $LR^n$ this seems to follow from the calculations in [2].
Bass's Theorem ([3]; [1] Thm. 5.2.2) sometimes helps in this situation, but I am not enough of a topologist to tell (and am inclined to say it does not). See my question (and attempt of answer) on MSE: https://math.stackexchange.com/q/4237616/478924
When calculating the trace field with the approach of [2], there is a finite set of algebraic solutions one of which belongs to the geometric structure of the manifold. It might be worthwhile to mention that in all my examples, also the other, non-geometric solutions define a (non-discrete) representation with integral traces.
