The Bernstein–Sato divisibility conjecture for regular sequences
The Bernstein–Sato divisibility conjecture for regular sequences
Let be the smooth variety and let be a regular sequence. Set and let denote the open subset on which the relevant restriction is defined. Let and be the corresponding Bernstein–Sato polynomials. Bernstein–Sato divisibility conjecture. We have
Equivalently, the set is either empty or the singleton . This conjecture predicts that no factor with can occur without forcing additional integer roots in the restricted Bernstein–Sato polynomial, constraining the possible discrepancy between the global and restricted polynomials.
