In this work we compute the Stokes matrices of the ordinary differential equation satisfied by the hypergeometric integrals associated to an arrangement of hyperplanes in generic position. This generalizes the computation done by J.-P. Ramis for confluent hypergeometric functions, which correspond to the arrangement of two points on the line. The proof is based on an explicit description of a base of canonical solutions as integrals on the cones of the arrangement, and combinatorial relations between...
In this paper, we define the supersolvable order of hyperplanes in a supersolvable arrangement, and obtain a class of inductively free arrangements according to this order. Our main results improve the conclusion that every supersolvable arrangement is inductively free. In addition, we assert that the inductively free arrangement with the required induction table is supersolvable.
A problem of finding a system of proportionally located parallel supporting hyperplanes of a family of connected compact sets is analyzed. A special attention is paid to finding a common supporting halfspace. An existence theorem is proved and a method of solution is proposed.
