We define Bernstein-Sato polynomials for meromorphic functions and study their basic properties. In particular, we prove a Kashiwara-Malgrange type theorem on their geometric monodromies, which would be useful also in relation with the…
We generalize the Bernstein-Sato polynomials of Budur, Mustata and Saito to ideals in normal semigroup rings. In the case of monomial ideals, we also relate the roots of the Bernstein-Sato polynomial to the jumping coefficients of the…
We introduce the notion of Bernstein-Sato polynomial of an arbitrary variety (which is not necessarily reduced nor irreducible), using the theory of V-filtrations of M. Kashiwara and B. Malgrange. We prove that the decreasing filtration by…
We give an introduction to a theory of b-functions, i.e. Bernstein-Sato polynomials. After reviewing some facts from D-modules, we introduce b-functions including the one for arbitrary ideals of the structure sheaf. We explain the relation…

We give estimates for the zero loci of Bernstein-Sato ideals. An upper bound is proved as a multivariate generalisation of the upper bound by Lichtin for the roots of Bernstein-Sato polynomials. The lower bounds generalise the fact that…
Musta\c{t}\u{a} defined Bernstein-Sato polynomials in prime characteristic for principal ideals and proved that the roots of these polynomials are related to the $F$-jumping numbers of the ideal. This approach was later refined by Bitoun.…
We show that given an ideal I generated by regular functions f_1,...,f_r on the smooth complex variety X, the Bernstein-Sato polynomial of I is equal to the reduced Bernstein-Sato polynomial of the function g=\sum_{i=1}^rf_iy_i on the…

This paper investigates the existence and properties of a Bernstein-Sato functional equation in nonregular settings. In particular, we construct $D$-modules in which such formal equations can be studied. The existence of the Bernstein-Sato…
For an ideal of a regular $\cc$-algebra, its Bernstein-Sato polynomial is the monic polynomial of the lowest degree satisfying an Bernstein-Sato functional equation. We generalize the notion of Bernstein-Sato functional equations to the…

Bernstein-Sato polynomial of a hypersurface is an important object with numerous applications. It is known, that it is complicated to obtain it computationally, as a number of open questions and challenges indicate. In this paper we propose…
Following work of Musta\c{t}\u{a} and Bitoun we recently developed a notion of Bernstein-Sato roots for arbitrary ideals, which is a prime characteristic analogue for the roots of the Bernstein-Sato polynomial. Here we prove that for…
