The holonomic rank of the A-hypergeometric system M_A(\beta) is the degree of the toric ideal I_A for generic parameters; in general, this is only a lower bound. To the semigroup ring of A we attach the ranking arrangement and use this…

The holonomic rank of the A-hypergeometric system H_A(\beta) is shown to depend on the parameter vector \beta when the underlying toric ideal I_A is a non Cohen Macaulay codimension 2 toric ideal. The set of exceptional parameters is…

The holonomic rank of an A-hypergeometric system $H_A(\beta)$ is conjectured to be independent of the parameter vector $\beta$ if and only if the toric ideal $I_A$ is Cohen Macaulay. We prove this conjecture in the case that $I_A$ is…

We analyze the behavior of the holonomic rank in families of holonomic systems over complex algebraic varieties by providing homological criteria for rank-jumps in this general setting. Then we investigate rank-jump behavior for…

Let $A$ be an integer matrix, and assume that its semigroup ring $\mathbb{C}[\mathbb{N}A]$ is normal. Fix a face $F$ of the cone of $A$. We show that the projection and restriction of an $A$-hypergeometric system to the coordinate subspace…

Let A be an integer (d x n) matrix, and assume that the convex hull conv(A) of its columns is a simplex of dimension d-1. Write \NA for the semigroup generated by the columns of A. It was proved by M. Saito [math.AG/0012257] that the…

Classical theorems of Gel'fand et al., and recent results of Beukers, show that non-confluent Cohen-Macaulay A-hypergeometric systems have reducible monodromy representation if and only if the continuous parameter is A-resonant. We remove…

The rank of an $A$-hypergeometric $D$-module $M_A(\beta)$, associated with a full rank $(d\times n)$-matrix $A$ and a vector of parameters $\beta\in \mathbb{C}^d$, is known to be the normalized volume of $A$, denoted $\mathrm{vol}(A)$, when…

We study the irregularity sheaves attached to the $A$-hypergeometric $D$-module $M_A(\beta)$ introduced by Gel'fand et al., where $A\in\mathbb{Z}^{d\times n}$ is pointed of full rank and $\beta\in\mathbb{C}^d$. More precisely, we…

New heterotic modular invariants are found using the level-rank duality of affine Kac-Moody algebras. They provide strong evidence for the consistency of an infinite list of heterotic Wess-Zumino-Witten (WZW) conformal field theories. We…

A refined notion of curvature for a linear system of Hermitian vector spaces, in the sense of Grothendieck, leads to the unitary classification of a large class of analytic Hilbert modules. Specifically, we study Hilbert sub-modules, for…

This paper completes the proof of the Ramanujan Conjecture for holomorphic Hilbert modular forms whose weights are all congruent modulo 2. As a consequence, the Weight-Monodromy Conjecture and the zeta function conjecture of Langlands are…

The central result of this paper is a refinement of Hida's duality theorem between ordinary Lambda-adic modular forms and the universal ordinary Hecke algebra. Specifically, we give a necessary condition for this duality to be integral with…

We investigate the solution space of hypergeometric systems of differential equations in the sense of Gelfand, Graev, Kapranov and Zelevinsky. For any integer $d \geq 2$ we construct a matrix $A_d \in \N^{d \times 2d}$ and a parameter…

We give an explicit formula for the duality, previously conjectured by Horja and Borisov, of two systems of GKZ hypergeometric PDEs. We prove that in the appropriate limit this duality can be identified with the inverse of the Euler…

Let $A$ be a $C^*$-algebra, $H$ be a Hilbert $A$-module and $K(H)$ be the closure of the set of finite rank module maps. We show that the $W^*$-algebra of all bounded $A^{**}$-module maps on the smallest self-dual Hilbert $A^{**}$-module…

By a codimension-one system we mean a system whose lattice of relations has rank one. We consider codimension-one $A$-hypergeometric systems and explicitly construct some of the logarithmic series solutions at the origin. When the parameter…
