Abstract

We present a quite efficient method to calculate the roots of Bernstein-Sato polynomial for a defining polynomial ff of a projective hypersurface ZPn1Z\subset{\mathbb P}^{n-1} of degree dd having only weighted homogeneous isolated singularities. We prove the E2E_2-degeneration of the pole order spectral sequence so that the computation of roots is reduced to the one of the Hilbert series of the Jacobian ring of ff except the special case where ff is annihilated by a nonzero vector field on Cn{\mathbb C}^n with linear function coefficients. In the three variable case with d>4d>4 we may assume that this vector field is a linear combination of xx,yy,zzx\partial_x, y\partial_y, z\partial_z, where ff is called extremely degenerated; in particular, the latter case does not contain any essential indecomposable central hyperplane arrangement in C3{\mathbb C}^3. Combined with the self-duality of the Koszul complex and a theorem of Dimca and Popescu, it implies for n=3n=3 with d>4d>4 except the extremely degenerated case that Rf=1d(Z[3,k])RZR_f=\frac{1}{d}({\mathbb Z}\cap[3,k'])\cup R_Z. Here Rf,RZR_f,R_Z are the roots of Bernstein-Sato polynomials of ff and ZZ up to sign, and k=max(2d3,kmax+3)k'=\max(2d-3,k_{\max}+3) with kmaxk_{\max} the maximal degree of the ``torsion part" of the Jacobian ring, where the latter is known to be at most 2d52d-5 in the hyperplane arrangement case.
