Let M be a compact, oriented Riemannian manifold of dimension dr and let Γ be the fundamental group of M. For a finite dimensional representation ρ of Γ on a vector space F, Ray and Singer [10] have defined the analytic torsion T(M, ρ) as follows: We denote by E the vector bundle over M with typical fibre F defined by the representation ρ.
