Analytic Surgery and Analytic Torsion
Analytic surgery, as defined in [9] and [6], is a one-parameter metric deformation of a Riemannian manifold M , which stretches M across a separating hypersurface H in a cylindrical fashion; the singular limit is a complete manifold with asymptotically cylindrical ends, M . In this paper, the analysis of [9] and [6] is used to study the behaviour of analytic torsion of unitary representations u...
متن کاملThe Analytic Torsion of a Cone over a Sphere
We compute the analytic torsion of a cone over a sphere of dimension 1, 2, and 3, and we conjecture a general formula for the cone over an odd dimensional sphere.
متن کاملComplex Valued Analytic Torsion for Flat Bundles and for Holomorphic Bundles with (1,1) Connections
The work of Ray and Singer which introduced analytic torsion, a kind of determinant of the Laplacian operator in topological and holomorphic settings, is naturally generalized in both settings. The couplings are extended in a direct way in the topological setting to general flat bundles and in the holomorphic setting to bundles with (1,1) connections, which using the Newlander-Nirenberg Theorem...
متن کاملSurvey on Analytic and Topological Torsion
The article consists of a survey on analytic and topological torsion. Analytic torsion is defined in terms of the spectrum of the analytic Laplace operator on a Riemannian manifold, whereas topological torsion is defined in terms of a triangulation. The celebrated theorem of Cheeger and Müller identifies these two notions for closed Riemannian manifolds. We also deal with manifolds with boundar...
متن کاملAsymptotic Expansion of the Witten deformation of the analytic torsion
Given a compact Riemannian manifold (Md, g), a finite dimensional representation �:�1(M) → GL(V) of the fundamental group �1(M) on a vector space V of dimension l and a Hermitian structure � on the flat vector bundle � → p M associated to �, Ray-Singer [RS] have introduced the analytic torsion T = T(M,�,g,�) > 0. Witten’s deformation dq(t) of the exterior derivative dq, dq(t) = e-htdqeht, with ...
