商品描述
This monograph presents a structured and conceptually unified study of upper triangular integer matrices and the rich family of structures they induce. Central objects include unimodular bilinear lattices, vanishing cycles, monodromy groups, braid group actions, and associated moduli spaces. These constructions naturally provide a common framework linking algebraic geometry, representation theory, singularity theory, and the theory of irregular meromorphic connections. To a given matrix is associated a ℤ-lattice with a unimodular bilinear form (the Seifert form) and a triangular basis. This leads to even and odd intersection forms, reflections and transvections, monodromy groups, and corresponding vanishing cycles. Braid group actions generate orbits of distinguished bases and matrices, which in turn give rise to complex manifolds obtained by gluing Stokes regions. General tools and results are developed throughout, with a systematic analysis of the cases of rank 2 and 3. Already in rank 3 a wide range of phenomena appears, illustrating the broader landscape. Classical situations related to Coxeter groups, generalized Cartan lattices, exceptional sequences, and isolated hypersurface singularities arise as special cases but represent only a small part of the theory. The book is intended for researchers and students working with integral upper triangular matrices and their induced structures.
商品描述(中文翻譯)
本專論對上三角整數矩陣及其所誘導的豐富結構,提出了具系統性且概念統一的研究。核心對象包括單模雙線性格(unimodular bilinear lattices)、消失循環(vanishing cycles)、單值群(monodromy groups)、編織群作用(braid group actions),以及相關的模空間(moduli spaces)。這些構造自然地提供了一個共同框架,將代數幾何、表示論、奇點理論,以及不規則亞純連接(irregular meromorphic connections)理論連結起來。
對於給定的矩陣,可對應到一個帶有單模雙線性形式(Seifert 形式)與三角形基底的 ℤ-格。由此可導出偶交形式與奇交形式、反射與橫截變換(transvections)、單值群,以及相應的消失循環。編織群作用會生成特殊基底與矩陣的軌道,而這些軌道進一步產生透過黏合 Stokes 區域所得到的複流形。
全書逐步發展一般性的工具與結果,並系統性地分析秩為 2 與 3 的情形。即使在秩 3 的情況下,也已經出現廣泛多樣的現象,展現出更宏觀的理論面貌。與 Coxeter 群、廣義 Cartan 格、例外序列(exceptional sequences)及孤立超曲面奇點(isolated hypersurface singularities)相關的經典情形,都是本理論的特殊案例,但僅構成其中一小部分。本書適合研究整數上三角矩陣及其所誘導結構的研究人員與學生閱讀。
