for the physicist and the layman

I'd love it you might be able to give the relationship between this invariant and torsion in physics. I took two semesters of topology, and I might be able to understand this if I spent two hours wikibrowsing and writing... but i don't wanna! SamuelRiv (talk) 17:34, 23 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]

I will add some items

Todeay, I have add a bit of history about Reidemeister torsion. And I will add some item, which contains Cheeger-Muller Theorem, Schwarz's example using analytic torsion of topological quantum field thoery and the relation to Witten's Jones polynomial & QFT. --Enyokoyama (talk) 16:50, 30 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]
