On Lisbon integrals

Abstract

We introduce new complex analytic integral transforms, the Lisbon Integrals, which naturally arise in the study of the affine space $\mathbb{C}^k$ of unitary polynomials $P_s(z)$ where $s\in\mathbb{C}^k$ and $z\in \mathbb{C}$, $s_i$ identified to the $i-$th symmetric function of the roots of $P_s(z)$. We completely determine the $\mathcal{D}$-modules (or systems of partial differential equations) the Lisbon Integrals satisfy and prove that they are their unique global solutions. If we specify a holomorphic function $f$ in the $z$-variable, our construction induces an integral transform which associates a regular holonomic module quotient of the sub-holonomic module we computed. We illustrate this correspondence in the case of a $1$-parameter family of exponentials $f_t(z) = exp(t z)$ with $t$ a complex parameter.
