Lebeau, Gilles (ed.), On microlocal analysis. Volume dedicated to Jean-Michel Bony on the occasion of his 60th birthday. Paris: Société Mathématique de France (ISBN 2-85629-132-5/pbk). Astérisque 284, 143-164 (2003).
In order to treat problems in which one has to handle sheaves associated with, for instance, holomorphic functions with growth conditions, the authors introduced in [Astérisque, 271. Paris: Société Mathématique de France (2001; Zbl 0993.32009)] the category of ind-sheaves. In the present paper, they give the definition and the elementary properties of the micro-support $$SS(\cdot)$$ of ind-sheaves as well as the notion of regularity. In particular, they prove that $$SS(\cdot)$$ and the regular micro-support $$SS_{\text{reg}}(\cdot)$$ of ind-sheaves behave naturally with respect to distinguished triangles, and that they are invariant through the action of quantized contact transformations. They then apply these results to the ind-sheaves of temperate holomorphic solutions of $${\mathcal D}$$-modules, by proving that the micro-support of such an ind-sheaf is the characteristic variety of the corresponding $${\mathcal D}$$-module and that the ind-sheaf is regular if the $${\mathcal D}$$-module is regular holonomic. They finally compute an example of the ind-sheaf of temperate solutions of an irregular $${\mathcal D}$$-module in dimension one.
