If x_n is a constant (enum), you can use that to create a function instead of a delegate:

void main() {
    enum real x_n = 1;
    real x_m = -1;
    real function(real) s_n = z => F1(z, x_n);
    auto J = jac(s_n, x_m);
}

If x_n is not constant, then the only way I see to make this work, is to use a module variable:

----
real x_n;
void main() {
    x_n = 1;
    real x_m = -1;
    real function(real) s_n = z => F1(z, x_n);
    auto J = jac(s_n, x_m);
}

A combination of std.functional.reverseArgs and std.functional.partial might help. It's unfortunately we don't have a version that can set an arbitrary argument, only the first one; It would be an easy improvement to make.

Thank you both. I understood what you have shown to me.
About the chain 'reverseArg'+'partial' I reached to use it partially, only the partial part; so it worked with exception of reverseArg. I made several attempt to make it working but without succes.

About the scope/declaration suggestion they worked, fine. I've also made a change declaring x_s as static and worked as well (without change of scope and without use of enum).

Unfortunatly I tried to exted the code by introducing array of functions F1->[F1, F2, ...] and I saw such solution cannot apply. That why because of built functions passed (as example) to lambda function they do not store information. And I went back to delegates that store the necessary data to create the correct function. I've seen some method to pass from delegates to function, but onestly I found a to complex approach and much more a workaround that a good programming. Going back to my study of D I will find the right way of thinking to approch such problems (I imagine now the trick could be using templates... I will see).

Thanks again. I've learned many things by looking at you solution.
