Extended Tropical Characteristic Fibers and Slopes of Binomial D-Modules
Abstract
For a holonomic D-module, we consider the extended tropicalization of the reduced L-characteristic fiber along the family Ls=F+(s−1)VY. For A-hypergeometric systems, this tropical fiber determines the complete (A,L)-umbrella and hence recovers the classical slopes. We extend this result to holonomic binomial D-modules, for which the tropical jump parameters are exactly the classical slopes at the origin. As an application, a holonomic binomial D-module is regular holonomic if and only if there are no tropical jumps along any coordinate subspace.

AB - For a holonomic D-module, we consider the extended tropicalization of the reduced L-characteristic fiber along the family L_s=F+(s−1)V_Y. For A-hypergeometric systems, this tropical fiber determines the complete (A,L)-umbrella and hence recovers the classical slopes. We extend this result to holonomic binomial D-modules, for which the tropical jump parameters are exactly the classical slopes at the origin. As an application, a holonomic binomial D-module is regular holonomic if and only if there are no tropical jumps along any coordinate subspace.
