Abstract

We show that the Volume Conjecture for polyhedra implies a weak version of the Stoker Conjecture; in turn we prove that this weak version of the Stoker conjecture implies the Stoker conjecture. The main tool used is an extension of a result of Montcouquiol and Weiss, saying that dihedral angles are local coordinates for compact polyhedra with angles $\leq π$.
