Abstract
In this article we study arrangementsA, such that ℝn\A has exactly one bounded component. We obtain a result about their structure which gives us a method to construct all combinatorially different such arrangements in a given dimension. (A complete list for dimensions 1,2,3 and 4 is included).
Furthermore we associate ap-adic integral to each such arrangement and proof that this integral can be written as a product ofp-adic beta functions. This is analogous to results of Varchenko and Loeser for integrals over ℝ and character sums over finite fields respectively.
