Abstract

A central arrangement A of hyperplanes in an ℓ-dimensional vector space V is said to be totally free if a multiarrangement (A, m) is free for any multiplicity m : A → ℤ>0. It has been known that A is totally free whenever ℓ ≤ 2. In this article, we will prove that there does not exist any totally free arrangement other than the obvious ones, that is, a product of one-dimensional arrangements and two-dimensional ones.
