Local monodromy, Behrend function and Hilbert scheme of points on ℂ3
Abstract
We prove a criteria for the Behrend function values on the Hilbert scheme of n-points on C3 from local monodromy and the Denef--Loeser's Lefschetz trace formula of jet spaces. If the power two, three, or four of the monodromy is unipotent, it reduces respectively to a Hessian parity formula, a cubic-complement formula, or a quartic formula. This gives a Milnor fiber and monodromy based proof of nonconstancy of the Behrend function on Hilbn(C3) after Jelisiejew-Kool-Schmiermann. We also calculate two ideals in Hilb9(C3) and Hilb12(C3) so that the Behrend function is not ± 1, answering a question of Ricolfi.

If the power two, three, or four of the monodromy is unipotent, it reduces respectively to a Hessian parity formula, a cubic-complement formula, or a quartic formula. This gives a Milnor fiber and monodromy based proof of nonconstancy of the Behrend function on Hilb^n(C^3) after Jelisiejew-Kool-Schmiermann. We also calculate two ideals in Hilb^9(C^3) and Hilb^12(C^3) so that the Behrend function is not ± 1, answering a question of Ricolfi.
