Abstract
The point of the talk is that of providing purely algebraic definitions and proofs of otherwise known results on integrable systems of linear di erential equations with only a finite dimensional space of local solutions over a smooth algebraic manifold. This talk represents work in collaboration with Y. Andr´e and it is based on our joint book: “De Rham Cohomology of Di erential Modules on Algebraic Varieties”, Progress in Mathematics Vol. 189, Birkhaueser (2001). We correct some statements in that book. The result is still incomplete. Summary: 1. Review of the notion of regular singular point for a linear ordinary di erential equation with meromorphic coecients. Global counterpart “Fuchsian equations”) on a Riemann surface. 2. Examples: Hypergeometric equations on the projective complex line, with 3 singular points. 3. Generalisation of the notion of regular singularity along a divisor to integrable overdetermined systems of linear PDE’s over a complex algebraic manifold, and of the notion of fuchsian connection on an algebraic vector bundle. 4. Deligne’s canonical extension of a Fuchsian connection on a smooth complex algebraic variety, as a logarithmic connection with singularities along a divisor with normal crossings on a Hironaka compactification. 5. Deligne’s criterion of regularity on a normal (not necessarily smooth!) compactification: one only needs to consider the behaviour along the divisors at infinity. 6. (Counter)examples of J. Bernstein to some statements in loc. cit.. 6. Reduction process in a purely algebraic proof of 5. 1
