Torsion function on character varieties
Léo Bénard
In this paper we define the Reidemeister torsion as a rational function on the geometric components of the character variety of a one-cusped hyperbolic manifold M. We study its pol…

Reidemeister torsion form on character varieties
Léo Bénard
In this paper we define the adjoint Reidemeister torsion as a differential form on the character variety of a compact oriented 3-manifold with toral boundary, and prove it defines…
