Nilsson solutions for irregular A-hypergeometric systems (Q446408)

The authors investigate \(A\)-hypergeometric systems \(H_A(\beta)\) with parameter vector \(\beta\in \mathbb{C}^d\), \(d\in \mathbb{N}\). In particular, the formal basic Nilsson solutions of \(H_A(\beta)\) in the direction of a weight vector \(w\in \mathbb{R}^n_{> 0}\) are studied. The \(\mathbb{C}\)-span of the basic Nilsson solutions of \(H_A(\beta)\) in the direction of \(w\) is called the space of formal Nilsson series solutions of \(H_A(\beta)\) in the direction of \(w\) and is denoted by \(\mathcal{N}_w (H_A(\beta))\). The relationship between \(\mathcal{N}_w (H_A(\beta))\) and the solution space of an associated regular holonomic hypergeometric system is explained. A linear map \(\rho\) between the aforementioned spaces is constructed and it is proved that \(\rho\) is injective and describes its image. Moreover, a combinatorial formula for the dimension of \(\mathcal{N}_w (H_A(\beta))\) over \(\mathbb{C}\) is presented, and it is shown that the logarithmic-free basic Nilsson solutions of \(H_A(\beta)\) in the direction of \(w\) span the vector space of formal logarithmic-free \(A\)-hypergeometric systems in the direction \(w\). Finally, the convergence of formal Nilsson solutions to \(A\)-hypergeometric systems is analyzed. In particular, an explicit construction for a basis of the space of multivalued holomorphic solutions of \(H_A(\beta)\) is given.
