Description
The analytic torsion of the Rumin complex associated with a (2,3,5) geometry on a closed 5-manifold is a spectral invariant that should coincide with the Reidemeister torsion (a topological invariant), up to an integral of locally computable geometric quantities. In this talk we will present first computations of this analytic torsion in very symmetrical situations.
