In the case where $M$ is hyperbolic of finite volume, we prove that the $L^2$-torsion is a real analytic function on a neighborhood of any lift of the holonomy representation.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2020-09-14T17:13:04.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "character variety", "real analytic function", "finite volume", "holonomy representation", "properties" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 0, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
