R torsion and analytic torsion for a conical frustum

Differential Geometry 2013-01-22 v2

Abstract

We investigate the limit the R torsion of a conical frustum as one of the basis is shrunk to a point. We show that, if we take suitable regularization, such a limit gives the intersection torsion of the resulting cone.
