Saito gave a nice and efficient criterion to determine whether the module of logarithmic derivation associated with a reduced divisor in a complex variety is free or not. The aim of this note is to propose a new proof of this criterion, in…
We study a generalized version of Terao's famous addition theorem for free arrangements to the category of those with projective dimension one. Namely, we give a criterion to determine the algebraic structure of logarithmic derivation…
We establish generalizations of Saito's criterion for the freeness of divisors in projective spaces that apply both to sequences of several homogeneous polynomials and to divisors on other complete varieties. As an application, the new…
We introduce a nonnegative functional $\mathfrak{S}$ on the space of line arrangements in $\mathbb{P}^2$ that vanishes precisely on free arrangements, obtained as a semicontinuous relaxation of Saito's criterion. Given an arrangement…
We prove using an extension of Saito's criterion that the algebra of differential operators tangent to a free hyperplane arrangement is generated by the derivations of the arrangement, recovering in this way a result of F. J.…
Only few categories of free arrangements are known in which Terao's conjecture holds. One of such categories consists of $3$-arrangements with unbalanced Ziegler restrictions. In this paper, we generalize this result to arbitrary…
We produce a one-parameter family of hyperplane arrangements that are counterexamples to the conjecture of Saito that the complexified complement of a free arrangement is $K(\pi,1)$. These arrangements are the restriction of a one-parameter…
In this paper, we show how to compute using Fitting ideals the nonfree locus of the moduli space of arrangements of a rank $3$ simple matroid, i.e., the subset of all points of the moduli space which parametrize nonfree arrangements. Our…
We show that a holonomic divisor is free if and only if applying all logarithmic derivations to a generic function with isolated critical point yields a complete intersection Artin algebra.
Let $ V $ a vector space of dimension $n$. A family $ \{H_1, \ldots, H_p \} $ of vectorial hyperplans $V$ defines an arrangement $ {\cal A} $ of $ V $. For $ i \in \{ 1, \ldots, p \} $, let $ l_i $ be a linear form on $V$ with $H_i$ as…
In this note we study the logarithmic derivation module of a non-free arrangement. We prove a generalized addition theorem for all arrangements. This addition theorem allows us to find various relationships between non-free arrangements,…
This paper studies the algebraic structure of a new class of hyperplane arrangement $A$ obtained by deleting two hyperplanes from a free arrangement. We provide information on the minimal free resolutions of the logarithmic derivation…
Hyperplane Arrangements of rank $3$ admitting an unbalanced Ziegler restriction are known to fulfill Terao's conjecture. This long-standing conjecture asks whether the freeness of an arrangement is determined by its combinatorics. In this…
We establish a general theory for projective dimensions of the logarithmic derivation modules of hyperplane arrangements. That includes the addition-deletion and restriction theorem, Yoshinaga-type result, and the division theorem for…
A hypersurface $X\subset \mathbb P^n$ is said to be free if its associated sheaf $T_X$ of vector fields tangent to $X$ is a free ${\mathcal O}_{\mathbb P^n}$-module. So far few examples of free hypersurfaces are known. In this short note,…
We consider the triple $(\mathcal{A},\mathcal{A}',\mathcal{A}^H)$ of hyperplane arrangements and the division of their characteristic polynomials. We show that the freeness of $\mathcal{A}^H$ and the division of $\chi(\mathcal{A};t)$ by…
We introduce a new class of arrangements of hyperplanes, called (strictly) plus-one generated arrangements, from algebraic point of view. Plus-one generatedness is close to freeness, i.e., plus-one generated arrangements have their…
Terao's factorization theorem shows that if an arrangement is free, then its characteristic polynomial factors into the product of linear polynomials over the integer ring. This is not a necessary condition, but there are not so many…
We introduce a weighted version of the module of logarithmic derivations of a divisor in weighted projective space, and provide a generalization of Saito's criterion for freeness in terms of weighted multiple eigenschemes (wME-schemes).…
For a central, not necessarily reduced, hyperplane arrangement $f$ equipped with any factorization $f = f_{1} \cdots f_{r}$ and for $f^{\prime}$ dividing $f$, we consider a more general type of Bernstein--Sato ideal consisting of the…
