Fractional residues
Abstract
Invariants of generalized tensor fields on a line are classified using special polynomials Pmk(-1/lambda) introduced here for this purpose. For the case of positive characteristic, a new invariant of formal power series, a width, is defined. Some applications to the geometric quantization of a line and conformal quantum field theory are discussed as well.
