Periods for flat algebraic connections (Q836895): Difference between revisions

A. Grothendieck and P. Deligne have proved the isomorphism between algebraic and analytic de Rham cohomology of a flat algebraic connection under the assumption of regular singularity at infinity. Then S. Bloch and H. Esnault extended this result to arbitrary connections on curves by introducing a modified homology theory (with coefficients in the local system of horizontal section of the dual connection) and proving a corresponding perfect pairing. In this paper the author constructs a rapid decay homology and proves the existence of the above perfect pairing in arbitrary dimensions using recent results by T. Mochizuki on C. Sabbah's conjecture on the existence of good formal structures.
