The local information of difference equations
Abstract
We give a definition for the restriction of a difference module on the affine line to a formal neighborhood of an orbit, trying to mimic the analogous definition and properties for a D-module. We show that this definition is reasonable in two ways. First, we show that specifying a difference module on the affine line is equivalent to giving its restriction to the complement of an orbit, together with its restriction to a neighborhood of an orbit and an isomorphism between the restriction of both to the intersection. We also give a definition for vanishing cycles of a difference module and define a local Mellin transform, which is an equivalence between vanishing cycles of a difference module and nearby cycles of its Mellin transform, a D-module.
