- The monodromy conjecture for high order poles, and norms of residue antiderivatives We prove the strong local monodromy conjecture for poles of order at least n-1 of the naive motivic zeta-function for a complex polynomial of n variables. Moreover, for every such pole s, we construct an explicit homology exp(2πi s)-eigencycle in a neighborhood of any given 1-dimensional exceptional stratum contributing the pole. The proof combines topological techniques developed by the author with a fact of birational geometry discovered by AI. 1 authors · Oct 14
