Some numerical computations on Reidemeister torsion for homology 3-spheres obtained by Dehn surgeries along the figure-eight knot

Abstract

We show some computations on representations of the fundamental group in SL(2;C) and Reidemeister torsion for a homology 3-sphere obtained by Dehn surgery along the figure-eight knot. This is the second version. We recorrected several errors in the first version.
