Periods for rank 1 irregular singular connections on surfaces
Abstract
We define a period pairing for flat, irregular singular, rank one connections, satisfying a technical condition regarding its stationary set, on complex surfaces between de Rham cohomology of the connection and a modified singular homology, the rapid decay homology. We prove that this gives a perfect duality. A 2-dimensional version of confluent hypergeometrics are contructed as an example.
