Abstract: |
The authors establish a Cheeger-M¨uller type theorem for the complex valued analytic torsion introduced by Burghelea and Haller for flat vector bundles carrying nondegenerate symmetric bilinear forms. As a consequence, they prove the Burghelea-Haller conjecture in full generality, which gives an analytic interpretation of (the square of) the Turaev torsion. |
