By a theorem of \\textit{M. Boileau, S. Boyer, R. Cebanu} and \\textit{G. S. Walsh} [Geom. Topol. 16, No. 2, 625--664 (2012; Zbl 1258.57001)], two hyperbolic knots (without hidden symmetries) are commensurable if and only if there are finite cyclic covers of their complements which are diffeomorphic. If \\(K\\) is a knot and \\(\\Delta_K\\) is its Alexander polynomial, then \\(\\tau(K):=\\int_{S^1} \\log|\\Delta_K(z)|\\) denotes the Mahler measure of the Alexander polynomial.NEWLINENEWLINEDefine moreover \\(\\rho(K):=\\int_{S^1} \\text{sign}(A(1-z)+A^t(1-\\overline{z}))\\).NEWLINENEWLINEThe main result of the paper is:NEWLINENEWLINETheorem. If \\(K_1\\) and \\(K_2\\) have diffeomorphic finite cyclic covers of their complements (with degrees \\(n_1\\) and \\(n_2\\), respectively) and if no root of unity is a zero of their Alexander polynomials, then \\(n_1\\tau(K_1) = n_2\\tau(K_2)\\) and \\(n_1\\rho(K_1) +m_1 = \\pm (n_2 \\rho(K_2) +m_2)\\) for suitable integers \\(m_1,m_2\\). The sign is \\(+1\\) if the diffeomorphism in question is orientation preserving, and \\(-1\\) if it is orientation reversing.NEWLINENEWLINEThis is proved by interpreting \\(\\tau(K)\\) as the \\(L^2\\)-torsion of the infinite cyclic covering of the knot complement and \\(\\rho(K)\\) as the \\(L^2\\)-rho invariant of the infinite cyclic covering of the knot complement, then using rather standard properties of \\(L^2\\)-invariants. The paper also indicates an alternative route to prove the theorem which avoids the use of \\(L^2\\)-invariants.NEWLINENEWLINEFriedl also shows how to compute \\(\\rho(K)\\) and \\(\\tau(K)\\) explicitly in terms of the zeros of the Alexander polynomial and finitely many integer calculations involving a Seifert matrix.NEWLINENEWLINEFinally, using these computation techniques, he studies a couple of examples for commensurability and non-commensurability, in the former case also checking which coverings are diffeomorphic (distinguishing also cases with orientation preserving and orientation reversing diffeomorphisms).NEWLINENEWLINEFor the entire collection see [Zbl
