Title R torsion and analytic torsion for a conical frustum
Author Luiz Hartmann and Mauro Spreafico
Abstract
We show how a suitable regularization of the Reidemeister torsion and of the analytic torsion of the conical frustum over an odd dimensional closed manifold M give the intersection torsion and the analytic torsion of the cone over M, respectively. We describe the same result in terms of Ray and Singer metrics.
