Title PRIMITIVE IDEALS OF THE RING OF DIFFERENTIAL OPERATORS ON AN AFFINE TORIC VARIETY

Author Mutsumi Saito

(Received April 19, 2006, revised September 11, 2006)
Abstract. We show that the classification of $A$-hypergeometric systems and that of multi-graded simple modules (up to shift) over the ring of differential operators on an affine toric variety are the same. We then show that the set of multi-homogeneous primitive ideals of the ring of differential operators is finite. Furthermore, we give conditions for the algebra being simple.
