The notion of Zariski pairs for projective curves in $\mathbb P^2$ is known since the pioneer paper of Zariski \cite{Zariski} and for further development, we refer the reference in \cite{Bartolo}.In this paper, we introduce a notion of…

Let $f(\mathbf z)$ be an analytic function defined in the neighborhood of the origin of $\mathbb C^n$ which have some Newton degenerate faces. We generalize the Varchenko formula for the zeta function of the Milnor fibration of a Newton…

We provide a positive answer to Zariski's conjecture for families of singular surfaces in $\mathbb C^3,$ under the condition that the family has a smooth normalisation. As a corollary of the result, we obtain a surprising characterization…

We consider suspension hypersurface singularities of type g=f(x,y)+z^n, where f is an irreducible plane curve singularity. For such germs, we prove that the link of g determines completely the Newton pairs of f and the integer n except for…

Motivic and topological zeta functions are singularity invariants, mainly associated to a function $f$ and a top differential form $\omega$ on a smooth variety. When $\omega$ is the standard form $dx_1\wedge \dots \wedge dx_n$ on affine…

We associate to every analytic surface singularity $(V,0)$ in $(\mathbb C^3,0)$, not necessarily isolated, an invariant $mult^* (V)$ and show that an analytic family of such singularities $(V_t,0)$, $t\in (\mathbb C^l,0)$, is generically…

Let $f$ be a (possibly Newton degenerate) weighted homogeneous polynomial defining an isolated surface singularity at the origin of $\mathbb{C}^3$, and let $\{f_s\}$ be a generic deformation of its coefficients such that $f_s$ is Newton…

For an isolated hypersurface singularity $f=0$, the Milnor number $\mu$ is greater than or equal to the Tjurina number $\tau$ (the dimension of the base of the semi-universal deformation), with equality if $f$ is quasi-homogeneous. K. Saito…

To the best of the authors' knowledge, all previously known examples of $\mu$-, $\mu^*$-, link-, or ordinary Zariski pairs of surface singularities in $\mathbb{C}^3$ consist of (possibly weighted) L\^e-Yomdin singularities. In this paper,…

We construct Zariski K3 surfaces of Artin invariant 1, 2 and 3 in many characteristics. In particular, we prove that any supersingular Kummer surface is Zariski if the characteristic is not congruent to 1 modulo 12. Our methods combine…

We prove that for two germs of analytic mappings $f,g\colon (\mathbb{C}^n,0) \rightarrow (\mathbb{C}^p,0)$ with the same Newton polyhedra which are (Khovanskii) non-degenerate and their zero sets are complete intersections with isolated…

In this paper, we introduce \textit{splitting numbers} of subvarieties in a smooth variety for a Galois cover, and prove that the splitting numbers are invariant under certain homeomorphisms. By splitting numbers, we give a necessary and…

The polynomial method has been used recently to obtain many striking results in combinatorial geometry. In this paper, we use affine Hilbert functions to obtain an estimation theorem in finite field geometry. The most natural way to state…

We show that for any polynomial $F(X,Y_0,Y_1,Y_2) \in \mathbb{C}[X, Y_0, Y_1, Y_2]$, the equation $F(z,j(z),j'(z),j''(z))=0$ has a Zariski dense set of solutions in the hypersurface $F(X,Y_0,Y_1,Y_2)=0$, unless $F$ is in $\mathbb{C}[X]$ or…

A couple of complex projective plane curves are said to make a Zariski pair if they have the same degree and the same type of singularities, but their embeddings in the projective plane are topologically different. In this paper, we present…

We extend the approach Abbott, Kedlaya and Roe to computation of the zeta function of a projective hypersurface with $\tau$ isolated ordinary double points over a finite field $\mathbb{F}_q$ given by the reduction of a homogeneous…

The affine Hilbert function is a classical algebraic object that has been central, among other tools, to the development of the polynomial method in combinatorics. Owing to its concrete connections with Gr\"obner basis theory, as well as…

Two Magma functions are given: one computes linear systems of plane curves with non-ordinary singularities and the other computes a scheme which parametrizes given degree plane curves with given singularities. These functions provide an…

A pair of plane curves with the same combinatorics is said to be (a) a Zariski pair if the plane curves have different embedded topology, and (b) a strong Ziegler pair if their Milnor algebra are not isomorphic. We show that some examples…

The purpose of this paper is to exhibit infinite families of conjugate projective curves in a number field whose complement have the same abelian fundamental group, but are non-homeomorphic. In particular, for any $d>3$ we find Zariski…
