Abstract: Given complex numbers $m_1,l_1$ and positive integers $m_2,l_2$, such that $m_1+m_2=l_1+l_2$, we define $l_2$-dimensional hypergeometric integrals $I_{a,b}(z;m_1,m_2,l_1,l_2)$, $a,b=0,\mathrm{...},min(m_2,l_2)$, depending on a complex parameter $z$. We show that $I_{a,b}(z;m_1,m_2,l_1,l_2)=I_{a,b}(z;l_1,l_2,m_1,m_2)$, thus establishing an equality of $l_2$ and $m_2$-dimensional integrals. This identity allows us to study asymptotics of the integrals with respect to their dimension in some examples. The identity is based on the $(g{l}_k,g{l}_n)$ duality for the KZ and dynamical differential equations.

Review text

The authors establish an identity between hypergeometric integrals of different dimension which occur as solutions of either KZ or dynamical differential equations for the Lie algebra gl\(_2\). For the equated integrals, there is a coupling between the dimensions of integration and the exponents of the master functions in the integrands. The stated identity reflects a duality sitution on the Lie algebra level. It allows to interpret a dimension as an exponent (i.e. an integration parameter), and vice versa. As an application, the asymptotics of certain hypergeometric integrals as dimension goes to infinity is determined.
