Landau singularities and singularities of holonomic integrals of the Ising class
We consider families of multiple and simple integrals of the ``Ising class''
and the linear ordinary differential equations with polynomial coefficients
they are solutions of. We compare the full set of singularities given by the
roots of the head polynomial of these linear ODE's and the subset of
singularities occurring in the integrals, with the singularities obtained from
the Landau conditions. For these Ising class integrals, we show that the Landau
conditions can be worked out, either to give the singularities of the
corresponding linear differential equation or the singularities occurring in
the integral. The singular behavior of these integrals is obtained in the
self-dual variable , with , where is the
usual Ising model coupling constant. Switching to the variable , we show
that the singularities of the analytic continuation of series expansions of
these integrals actually break the Kramers-Wannier duality. We revisit the
singular behavior (J. Phys. A {\bf 38} (2005) 9439-9474) of the third
contribution to the magnetic susceptibility of Ising model at the
points and show that is not singular at the
corresponding points inside the unit circle , while its analytical
continuation in the variable is actually singular at the corresponding
points oustside the unit circle ().Comment: 34 pages, 1 figur
Symmetries of non-linear ODEs: lambda extensions of the Ising correlations
This paper provides several illustrations of the numerous remarkable
properties of the lambda-extensions of the two-point correlation functions of
the Ising model, sheding some light on the non-linear ODEs of the Painlev\'e
type. We first show that this concept also exists for the factors of the
two-point correlation functions focusing, for pedagogical reasons, on two
examples namely C(0,5) and C(2,5) at . We then display, in a
learn-by-example approach, some of the puzzling properties and structures of
these lambda-extensions: for an infinite set of (algebraic) values of these power series become algebraic functions, and for a finite set of
(rational) values of lambda they become D-finite functions, more precisely
polynomials (of different degrees) in the complete elliptic integrals of the
first and second kind K and E. For generic values of these power
series are not D-finite, they are differentially algebraic. For an infinite
number of other (rational) values of these power series are globally
bounded series, thus providing an example of an infinite number of globally
bounded differentially algebraic series. Finally, taking the example of a
product of two diagonal two-point correlation functions, we suggest that many
more families of non-linear ODEs of the Painlev\'e type remain to be discovered
on the two-dimensional Ising model, as well as their structures, and in
particular their associated lambda extensions. The question of their possible
reduction, after complicated transformations, to Okamoto sigma forms of
Painlev\'e VI remains an extremely difficult challenge.Comment: 23 page
Canonical decomposition of linear differential operators with selected differential Galois groups
We revisit an order-six linear differential operator having a solution which
is a diagonal of a rational function of three variables. Its exterior square
has a rational solution, indicating that it has a selected differential Galois
group, and is actually homomorphic to its adjoint. We obtain the two
corresponding intertwiners giving this homomorphism to the adjoint. We show
that these intertwiners are also homomorphic to their adjoint and have a simple
decomposition, already underlined in a previous paper, in terms of order-two
self-adjoint operators. From these results, we deduce a new form of
decomposition of operators for this selected order-six linear differential
operator in terms of three order-two self-adjoint operators. We then generalize
the previous decomposition to decompositions in terms of an arbitrary number of
self-adjoint operators of the same parity order. This yields an infinite family
of linear differential operators homomorphic to their adjoint, and, thus, with
a selected differential Galois group. We show that the equivalence of such
operators is compatible with these canonical decompositions. The rational
solutions of the symmetric, or exterior, squares of these selected operators
are, noticeably, seen to depend only on the rightmost self-adjoint operator in
the decomposition. These results, and tools, are applied on operators of large
orders. For instance, it is seen that a large set of (quite massive) operators,
associated with reflexive 4-polytopes defining Calabi-Yau 3-folds, obtained
recently by P. Lairez, correspond to a particular form of the decomposition
detailed in this paper.Comment: 40 page
Diagonals of rational functions, pullbacked 2F1 hypergeometric functions and modular forms (unabrigded version)
We recall that diagonals of rational functions naturally occur in lattice
statistical mechanics and enumerative combinatorics. We find that a
seven-parameter rational function of three variables with a numerator equal to
one (reciprocal of a polynomial of degree two at most) can be expressed as a
pullbacked 2F1 hypergeometric function. This result can be seen as the simplest
non-trivial family of diagonals of rational functions. We focus on some
subcases such that the diagonals of the corresponding rational functions can be
written as a pullbacked 2F1 hypergeometric function with two possible rational
functions pullbacks algebraically related by modular equations, thus showing
explicitely that the diagonal is a modular form. We then generalise this result
to eight, nine and ten parameters families adding some selected cubic terms at
the denominator of the rational function defining the diagonal. We finally show
that each of these previous rational functions yields an infinite number of
rational functions whose diagonals are also pullbacked 2F1 hypergeometric
functions and modular forms.Comment: 39 page
Ising n-fold integrals as diagonals of rational functions and integrality of series expansions: integrality versus modularity
We show that the n-fold integrals of the magnetic susceptibility
of the Ising model, as well as various other n-fold integrals of the "Ising
class", or n-fold integrals from enumerative combinatorics, like lattice Green
functions, are actually diagonals of rational functions. As a consequence, the
power series expansions of these solutions of linear differential equations
"Derived From Geometry" are globally bounded, which means that, after just one
rescaling of the expansion variable, they can be cast into series expansions
with integer coefficients. Besides, in a more enumerative combinatorics
context, we show that generating functions whose coefficients are expressed in
terms of nested sums of products of binomial terms can also be shown to be
diagonals of rational functions. We give a large set of results illustrating
the fact that the unique analytical solution of Calabi-Yau ODEs, and more
generally of MUM ODEs, is, almost always, diagonal of rational functions. We
revisit Christol's conjecture that globally bounded series of G-operators are
necessarily diagonals of rational functions. We provide a large set of examples
of globally bounded series, or series with integer coefficients, associated
with modular forms, or Hadamard product of modular forms, or associated with
Calabi-Yau ODEs, underlying the concept of modularity. We finally address the
question of the relations between the notion of integrality (series with
integer coefficients, or, more generally, globally bounded series) and the
modularity (in particular integrality of the Taylor coefficients of mirror
map), introducing new representations of Yukawa couplings.Comment: 100 page
Complexity spectrum of some discrete dynamical systems
We first study birational mappings generated by the composition of the matrix
inversion and of a permutation of the entries of matrices. We
introduce a semi-numerical analysis which enables to compute the Arnold
complexities for all the possible birational transformations. These
complexities correspond to a spectrum of eighteen algebraic values. We then
drastically generalize these results, replacing permutations of the entries by
homogeneous polynomial transformations of the entries possibly depending on
many parameters. Again it is shown that the associated birational, or even
rational, transformations yield algebraic values for their complexities.Comment: 1 LaTex fil
Ising n-fold integrals as diagonals of rational functions and integrality of series expansions
We show that the n-fold integrals of the magnetic susceptibility
of the Ising model, as well as various other n-fold integrals of the "Ising
class", or n-fold integrals from enumerative combinatorics, like lattice Green
functions, correspond to a distinguished class of function generalising
algebraic functions: they are actually diagonals of rational functions. As a
consequence, the power series expansions of the, analytic at x=0, solutions of
these linear differential equations "Derived From Geometry" are globally
bounded, which means that, after just one rescaling of the expansion variable,
they can be cast into series expansions with integer coefficients. We also give
several results showing that the unique analytical solution of Calabi-Yau ODEs,
and, more generally, Picard-Fuchs linear ODEs, with solutions of maximal
weights, are always diagonal of rational functions. Besides, in a more
enumerative combinatorics context, generating functions whose coefficients are
expressed in terms of nested sums of products of binomial terms can also be
shown to be diagonals of rational functions. We finally address the question of
the relations between the notion of integrality (series with integer
coefficients, or, more generally, globally bounded series) and the modularity
of ODEs.Comment: This paper is the short version of the larger (100 pages) version,
