Pfaffian of Appell's hypergeometric system \(\mathcal{F}_4\) in terms of the intersection form of twisted cohomology groups (Q290745): Difference between revisions

The authors study a Pfaffian system of Appell's hypergeometric system \(F_{4}(a,b,c)\) by a twisted cohomology group \(H^{2}(\Omega(C_{x}^{2}), \nabla)\) associated with Euler type integrals representing solutions of this system. The system \(F_{4}(a,b,c)\) is generated by the differential equations satisfied by the Appell's hypergeometric series \(F_{4}(a,b,c; x)\) of variables \(x_{1}, x_{2}\). The system \(F_{4}(a,b,c)\) does not admit an expression of the connection matrix like other Appell's hypergeometric systems. The authors simplify the connection matrix by the pull-back under a double cover of the complement of the singular locus. This is done through twisted cohomology groups.
