Abstract
Consider the space R Δ of rational functions of several variables with poles on a fixed arrangement Δ of hyperplanes. We obtain a decomposition of R Δ as a module over the ring of differential operators with constant coefficients. We generalize the notions of principal part and of residue to the space R Δ, and we describe their relations to Laplace transforms of locally polynomial functions. This explains algebraic aspects of the work by L. Jeffrey and F. Kirwan about integrals of equivariant cohomology classes on Hamiltonian manifolds. As another application, we will construct multidimensional versions of Eisenstein series in a subsequent article, and we will obtain another proof of a residue formula of A. Szenes for Witten zeta functions.
