Boundary local integrability of rational functions in two variables

Greg Knese

TL;DR

This work provides a complete local theory for the boundary integrability of rational functions in two variables, focusing on quotients $Q/P$ with $P$ nonvanishing in the bi-upper half-plane but vanishing at the origin. By replacing $P$ with a robust local model $[P]$ and exploiting a two-variable branch-matching framework via the auxiliary polynomial $A+tB$, the authors derive explicit necessary-and-sufficient criteria for $Q/P$ to belong to $L^{\mathfrak{p}}_{loc}$, parameterized by Puiseux-type data $L_j$ and $q_j$. They give precise dimension counts for the relevant local ideals and furnish a constructive basis for the quotient $\mathbb{C}\{x,y\}/(P,\bar P)$, enabling concrete test criteria and computable invariants. Applications include a result that every bounded rational function on the bidisk has derivatives on the torus in $L^1$, and a new, self-contained proof of Kollár’s description of the integrally closed ideal associated to $P$. The approach, rooted in a local model for stable polynomials and refined one- and two-variable analyses, offers a flexible toolkit for addressing other local questions about stable polynomials.

Abstract

Motivated by studying boundary singularities of rational functions in two variables that are analytic on a domain, we investigate local integrability on $\mathbb{R}^2$ near $(0,0)$ of rational functions with denominator non-vanishing in the bi-upper half-plane but with an isolated zero (with respect to $\mathbb{R}^2$) at the origin. Building on work of Bickel-Pascoe-Sola, we give a necessary and sufficient test for membership in a local $L^{p}(\mathbb{R}^2)$ space and we give a complete description of all numerators $Q$ such that $Q/P$ is locally in a given $L^{p}$ space. As applications, we prove that every bounded rational function on the bidisk has partial derivatives belonging to $L^1$ on the two-torus. In addition, we give a new proof of a conjecture, started in Bickel-Knese-Pascoe-Sola and completed by Kollár, characterizing the ideal of $Q$ such that $Q/P$ is locally bounded. A larger takeaway from this work is that a local model for stable polynomials we employ is a flexible tool and may be of use for other local questions about stable polynomials.

Key Result

theorem 1.2

[Theorem 1.2 BKPS] Let $P(x,y) \in \mathbb{C}[x,y]$ have no zeros in $\mathbb{H}^2$ and no common factors with $\bar{P}$. Suppose $P$ vanishes to order $M$ at $(0,0)$. Then there exist natural numbers $L_1,\dots, L_M \geq 1$ and real coefficient polynomials $q_1(x),\dots, q_M(x) \in \mathbb{R}[x]$ s for $j=1,\dots, M$ such that if we define then are bounded in a punctured neighborhood of $(0,0)$
