We consider symmetric (under the action of products of finite symmetric groups) real algebraic varieties and semi-algebraic sets, as well as symmetric complex varieties in affine and projective spaces, defined by polynomials of degrees…
For strongly Euler-homogeneous, Saito-holonomic, and tame analytic germs we consider general types of multivariate Bernstein-Sato ideals associated to arbitrary factorizations of our germ. We show the zero loci of these ideals are purely…
We offer new definitions of joint reductions and mixed Buchsbaum-Rim multiplicity for certain collections of modules over a Noetherian local ring and illustrate their application to give two different proofs of a joint-reduction-number-zero…
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 algorithms for computing multiplier ideals using Gr\"obner bases in Weyl algebras. The algorithms are based on a newly introduced notion which is a variant of Budur--Musta\c{t}\v{a}--Saito's (generalized) Bernstein--Sato polynomial.…
By using logarithmic $\mathcal D$-modules and Gr\"obner bases, we prove that Bernstein-Sato ideals satisfy some symmetric intersection property, answering a question posed by Budur. As an application, we obtain a formula for the…
We show that each direct summand of the associated graded module of the test module filtration $\tau(M, f^\lambda)_{\lambda \geq 0}$ admits a natural Cartier structure. If $\lambda$ is an $F$-jumping number, then this Cartier structure is…
Given a local ring $(R, \mathfrak{m})$ and an ideal $\mathfrak{a}$ of positive height, we give a way of computing multiplier module ${J}(\omega_{{T}}, t^{-\lambda})$ for the extended Rees algebra ${T} =R[\mathfrak{a} t, t^{-1}]$ for an…
This paper applies the multiplicity polar theorem to the study of hypersurfaces with non-isolated singularities. The multiplicity polar theorem controls the multiplicity of a pair of modules in a family by relating the multiplicity at the…
Given an effective Q-divisor D on a smooth complex variety, one can associate to D its multiplier ideal sheaf J(D), which measures in a somewhat subtle way the singularities of D. Because of their strong vanishing properties, these ideals…
We show that the Hodge ideals in the sense of Mustata and Popa are quite closely related to the induced microlocal V-filtration on the structure sheaf, defined by using the microlocalization of the V-filtration of Kashiwara and Malgrange.…
The space of unitary local systems of rank one on the complement of an arbitrary divisor in a complex projective algebraic variety can be described in terms of parabolic line bundles. We show that multiplier ideals provide natural…
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…
The Bernstein-Sato polynomial is an important invariant of an element or an ideal in a polynomial ring or power series ring of characteristic zero, with interesting connections to various algebraic and topological aspects of the…
For $i : Z \to X$ a closed immersion of smooth varieties, we study how the $V$-filtration along $Z$ and the Hodge filtration on a mixed Hodge module $M$ on $X$ interact with each other. We also give a formula for the functors $i^*$, $i^!$…
In this work, we develop a new theory of multivariate V-filtration on D-modules along a simple normal crossing divisor and relate it with Sabbah's multi-filtration. We establish several new structural results and relate them with the Hodge…
We show that the Bernstein-Sato polynomial (that is, the b-function) of a hyperplane arrangement with a reduced equation is calculable by combining a generalization of Malgrange's formula with the theory of Aomoto complexes due to Esnault,…
Given a complex germ $f$ near the point $\mathfrak{x}$ of the complex manifold $X$, equipped with a factorization $f = f_{1} \cdots f_{r}$, we consider the $\mathscr{D}_{X,\mathfrak{x}}[s_{1}, \dots, s_{r}]$-module generated by $ F^{S} :=…
Using invariants from commutative algebra to count geometric objects is a basic idea in singularities. For example, the multiplicity of an ideal is used to count points of intersection of two analytic sets at points of non-transverse…
We prove a conjecture of the first author relating the Bernstein-Sato ideal of a finite collection of multivariate polynomials with cohomology support loci of rank one complex local systems. This generalizes a classical theorem of Malgrange…
