For a rank 1 local system on the complement of a reduced divisor on a complex manifold

, its cohomology is calculated by the twisted meromorphic de Rham complex. Assuming the divisor is everywhere positively weighted homogeneous, we study necessary or sufficient conditions for a quasi-isomorphism from its twisted logarithmic subcomplex, called the logarithmic comparison theorem (LCT), by using a stronger version in terms of the associated complex of

is the unique integral root of the Bernstein-Sato polynomial. We also give a simple proof of LCT in the hyperplane arrangement case under appropriate assumptions on residues, which is an immediate corollary of higher cohomology vanishing associated with Castelnuovo-Mumford regularity. Here the zero-extension case is also treated.
