The Orlik-Solomon algebra of such an arrangement (viewed as a complex) is shown to be a linear approximation of a complex arising from the fundamental group of the complement, the cohomology of which is isomorphic to that of the complement with coefficients in an arbitrary complex rank one local system. We also establish the relationship between the cohomology support loci of the complement of a discriminantal arrangement and the resonant varieties of its Orlik-Solomon algebra.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "1999-03-23T01:24:10.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "52B30", "20F36" ], "keywords": [ "orlik-solomon algebra", "discriminantal arrangement", "complement", "local system cohomology", "arbitrary complex rank" ], "note": { "typesetting": "LaTeX", "pages": 16, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "1999math......3132C" } } }
