In Section 2.2 we explain the choice of Hodge structure on local cohomology implicit in our discussion. For H now we mention that it is determined functorially by pushing forward the trivial Hodge module OU from U = X \Z , and so by the general theory Hj (OH ) has weight ≥ mn+j−1 [Sai89, Proposition 1.7]. Theorem q Zq X 1.1 demonstrates that this bound is not sharp for any j in this case. It would be interesting to find sharper lower bounds in general, perhaps depending on the type of singularities that the variety possesses. From Theorem 1.1 one sees an inverse relation between the weight of a composition factor and the dimension of its support. A somewhat similar correlation has been observed for weights in GKZ systems [RW18, Proposition 3.6(2)], though weight is not completely determined by support dimension in that case. One may calculate the weight filtration on any local cohomology module using [RW16, Main Theorem] and Theorem 1.1. In the following examples, we express each module as a class in the Grothendieck group of GL-equivariant holonomic D-modules (see Section 2.3). Example 1.2. Let m = n = 4 and q = 2. The three nonzero local cohomology modules are: 4 6 8 HZ2 (OX ) = [D2] + [D1] + [D0], HZ2 (OX ) = [D1] + [D0], HZ2 (OX ) = [D0]. Theorem 1.1 asserts that if we endow OX with the trivial pure Hodge structure, then each Dp in cohomological degree j above is functorially endowed with weight 18−p+j. Thus, the weights of the above simple composition factors are (from left to right): 20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 26. We carry out a larger example on non-square matrices. Example 1.3. Let m = 7, n = 5, and q = 3. The seven nonzero local cohomology modules are: 8 10 12 HZ3 (OX ) = [D3], HZ3 (OX ) = [D2], HZ3 (OX ) = [D2] + [D1], 14 16 18 20 HZ3 (OX ) = HZ3 (OX ) = [D1] + [D0], HZ3 (OX ) = HZ3 (OX ) = [D0]. If OX is endowed with the trivial pure Hodge structure, then the weights of the above simple composition factors are (from left to right): 43, 46, 48, 49, 51, 52, 53, 54, 56, 58. • H One can show that the maximal weight of a composition factor of HZq (OX ) is 2mn−q(q +1), the weight of D0 in the largest degree in which it appears. This upper bound on weight resembles the case of GKZ systems, where weight is bounded above by twice the dimension of the relevant torus [RW18, Proposition 3.6(1)]. In the case of square matrices, we rephrase Theorem 1.1 in terms of mixed Hodge modules arising from the pole order filtration of the determinant hypersurface. We let m = n, and let S = C[xi,j]1≤i,j≤n denote the ring of polynomial functions on X . The localization Sdet of the polynomial ring at the n × n determinant det = det(xi,j) is a holonomic D-module, with composition series as follows [Rai16, Theorem 1.1]: −1 −2 −n 0 ( S ( hdet iD ( hdet iD ( · · · ( hdet iD = Sdet, (1.1) −p −p −p −p+1 ∼ where hdet iD is the D-submodule of Sdet generated by det , and hdet iD/hdet iD = Dn−p. Following [LR20], we define Qn = Sdet, and for p = 0, · · · ,n − 1, we set
Sdet Qp = p−n+1 . (1.2) hdet iD
The modules Qp constitute the indecomposable summands of local cohomology with determinantal support j [LR20, Theorem 1.6]. In other words, for all 0 ≤ q ≤ n and j ≥ 0, the local cohomology module H (OX ) Zq is a direct sum of the modules Q0, · · · ,Qq, possibly with multiplicity. For instance, in Example 1.2 the three nonzero local cohomology modules are isomorphic as D-modules to Q2, Q1, and Q0, respectively. H Let Qn be the mixed Hodge module structure on Qn = Sdet induced by pushing forward the trivial Hodge module from the complement of the determinant hypersurface (see Section 2.5). For 0 ≤ p ≤ n − 1 we write MIXED HODGE STRUCTURE ON LOCAL COHOMOLOGY WITH SUPPORT IN DETERMINANTAL VARIETIES 3
H H H H Qp for the quotient of Qn that overlies Qp, and for k ∈ Z we denote by Qp (k) the k-th Tate twist of Qp . In H Proposition 2.2 we show that the mixed Hodge modules {Qp (k)}k∈Z provide a complete list of mixed Hodge modules that may overlie Qp. As a consequence, we obtain the following result. Corollary 1.4. j H Let 0 ≤ p ≤ q
