AbstractThis paper is concerned with the behavior of twisted Ruelle zeta functions of compact hyperbolic manifolds at the origin. Fried proved that for an orthogonal acyclic representation of the fundamental group of a compact hyperbolic manifold, the twisted Ruelle zeta function is holomorphic at $$s=0$$ s = 0 and its value at $$s=0$$ s = 0 equals the Reidemeister torsion. He also established a more general result for orthogonal representations, which are not acyclic. The purpose of the present paper is to extend Fried’s result to arbitrary finite dimensional representations of the fundamental group. The Reidemeister torsion is replaced by the complex-valued combinatorial torsion introduced by Cappell and Miller.
