Derivations of negative degree on quasihomogeneous isolated complete intersection singularities

Abstract

J. Wahl conjectured that every quasihomogeneous isolated normal singularity admits a positive grading for which there are no derivations of negative weighted degree. We confirm his conjecture for quasihomogeneous isolated complete intersection singularities of either order at least 3 or embedding dimension at most 5. For each embedding dimension larger than 5 (and each dimension larger than 3), we give a counter-example to Wahl's conjecture.
