Homology and cohomology intersection numbers of GKZ systems

We describe the homology intersection form associated to regular holonomic GKZ systems in terms of the combinatorics of regular triangulations. Combining this result with the twisted period relation, we obtain a formula of cohomology intersection numbers in terms of a Laurent series. We show that the cohomology intersection number depends rationally on the parameters. We also prove a conjecture of F. Beukers and C. Verschoor on the signature of the monodromy invariant hermitian form. (C) 2021 Royal Dutch Mathematical Society (KWG). Published by Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
