Computing residue currents of monomial ideals using comparison formulas

Abstract

Given a free resolution of an ideal $\mathfrak{a}$ of holomorphic functions, one can construct a vector-valued residue current, $R$, which coincides with the classical Coleff-Herrera product if $\mathfrak{a}$ is a complete intersection ideal and whose annihilator ideal is precisely ~$\mathfrak{a}$. We give a complete description of $R$ in the case when $\mathfrak{a}$ is an Artinian monomial ideal and the resolution is the hull resolution (or a more general cellular resolution), extending previous results by the second author. The main ingredient in the proof is a comparison formula for residue currents due to the first author. By means of this description we obtain in the monomial case a current version of a factorization of the fundamental cycle of $\mathfrak{a}$ due to Lejeune-Jalabert.
