Betti structures of hypergeometric equations

We study Betti structures in the solution complexes of confluent hypergeometric equations. We use the framework of enhanced ind-sheaves and the irregular Riemann-Hilbert correspondence of D'Agnolo-Kashiwara. The main result is a group theoretic criterion that ensures that enhanced solutions of such systems are defined over certain subfields of the complex numbers. The proof uses a description of the hypergeometric systems as exponentially twisted Gauss-Manin systems of certain Laurent polynomials.

Stokes matrices for confluent hypergeometric equations

We apply the method of [arXiv:1705.07610] to compute the Stokes matrices of non-resonant confluent hypergeometric differential equations. We discuss the ambiguity of the presentation of the Stokes matrices regarding different choices. The results rely on an explicit description of the perverse sheaf associated to the non-confluent regular singular hypergeometric system arising via Fourier-Laplace transform. We give assumptions on the parameter such that the Stokes matrices have rational or real values. Under some more restrictive conditions, the Stokes matrices had been computed by Duval-Mitschi before. We compare our results with their formulae in the unramified case.

Topological computation of some Stokes phenomena on the affine line

Let $\mathcal M$ be a holonomic algebraic $\mathcal D$-module on the affine line, regular everywhere including at infinity. Malgrange gave a complete description of the Fourier-Laplace transform $\widehat{\mathcal M}$, including its Stokes multipliers at infinity, in terms of the quiver of $\mathcal M$. Let $F$ be the perverse sheaf of holomorphic solutions to $\mathcal M$. By the irregular Riemann-Hilbert correspondence, $\widehat{\mathcal M}$ is determined by the enhanced Fourier-Sato transform $F^\curlywedge$ of $F$. Our aim here is to recover Malgrange's result in a purely topological way, by computing $F^\curlywedge$ using Borel-Moore cycles. In this paper, we also consider some irregular $\mathcal M$'s, like in the case of the Airy equation, where our cycles are related to steepest descent paths.

Periods for flat algebraic connections

In previous work, we established a duality between the algebraic de Rham cohomology of a flat algebraic connection on a smooth quasi-projective surface over the complex numbers and the rapid decay homology of the dual connection relying on a conjecture by C. Sabbah, which has been proved recently by T. Mochizuki for algebraic connections in any dimension. In the present article, we verify that Mochizuki's results allow to generalize these duality results to arbitrary dimensions also.

Integral representations for solutions of exponential Gauss-Manin systems

Let f,g be two algebraically independent regular functions from the smooth affine complex variety U to the affine line. The associated exponential Gauss-Manin systems on the affine line are defined to be the cohomology sheaves of the direct image of the exponential differential system $\mathcal{O}_U e^g $ with respect to f. We prove that its holomorphic solutions admit representations in terms of period integrals over topological chains with possibly closed support and with rapid decay condition.

Periods for irregular singular connections on surfaces

We define homology groups for flat irregular singular connections on surfaces and a pairing between these and the de Rham cohomology of the connection, generalizing work of S. Bloch and H. Enault in dimension one. Assuming a conjecture of C. Sabbah (known to be true if the rank of the vector bundle is at most 5), we prove perfectness of the pairing. We comment on certain new phenomena appearing in dimension two.

Periods for rank 1 irregular singular connections on surfaces

We define a period pairing for flat, irregular singular, rank one connections, satisfying a technical condition regarding its stationary set, on complex surfaces between de Rham cohomology of the connection and a modified singular homology, the rapid decay homology. We prove that this gives a perfect duality. A 2-dimensional version of confluent hypergeometrics are contructed as an example.
