Abstract: For an oriented diagram of a link $L$ in the 3-sphere, Cho and Murakami defined the potential function whose critical point, slightly different from the usual sense, corresponds to a boundary parabolic $mathrmPSL(2,mathbbC)$-representation of $p{i}_1(S^{3}setminusL)$. They also showed that the volume and Chern-Simons invariant of such a representation can be computed from the potential function with its partial derivatives. In this paper, we extend the potential function to a $mathrmPSL(2,mathbbC)$-representation that is not necessarily boundary parabolic. Under a mild assumption, it leads us to a combinatorial formula for computing the volume and Chern-Simons invariant of a $mathrmPSL(2,mathbbC)$-representation of a closed 3-manifold.
