A paper of the first author and Zilke proposed seven combinatorial problems around formulas for the characteristic polynomial and the exponents of an isolated quasihomogeneous singularity. The most important of them was a conjecture on the…
The motivation for this paper are computer calculations of complete lists of weight systems of quasihomogeneous polynomials with isolated singularity at 0 up to rather large Milnor numbers. We review combinatorial characterizations of such…
The integral monodromy on the Milnor lattice of an isolated quasihomogeneous singularity is subject of an almost untouched conjecture of Orlik from 1972. We prove this conjecture for all iterated Thom-Sebastiani sums of chain type…
The middle homology of the Milnor fiber of a quasihomogeneous polynomial with an isolated singularity is a ${\mathbb Z}$-lattice and comes equipped with an automorphism of finite order, the integral monodromy. Orlik (1972) made a precise…
We prove that the Milnor ring of any (one-dimensional) local or global field K modulo a prime number l is a Koszul algebra over Z/l. Under mild assumptions that are only needed in the case l=2, we also prove various module Koszulity…
The purpose of this paper is to give an explicit formula of the {\L}ojasiewicz exponent of an isolated weighted homogeneous singularity in terms of its weights.
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…
We recall first some basic facts on weighted homogeneous functions and filtrations in the ring $A$ of formal power series. We introduce next their analogues for weighted homogeneous diffeomorphisms and vector fields. We show that the Milnor…
We give an especially simple proof of a theorem in graph theory that forms the key part of the solution to a problem in commutative algebra, on how to characterize the integral closure of a polynomial ring generated by quadratic monomials.
This paper aims to prove that given a isolated complete intersection singularity, the Milnor number will be bounded by a bound depending only on Tjurina number and dimension of the singularity. The proof uses A$\mathfrak{m}$AC (introduced…
In this paper we build an Orlik-Solomon model for the canonical gradation of the cohomology algebra with integer coefficients of the complement of a toric arrangement. We give some results on the uniqueness of the representation of…
Khimshiashvili proved a topological degree formula for the Eu-ler characteristic of the Milnor fibres of a real function-germ with an isolated singularity. We give two generalizations of this result for non-isolated singularities. As…
We give formulas for the image Milnor number of a weighted-homogeneous map-germ $(\mathbb{C}^n,0)\to(\mathbb{C}^{n+1},0)$, for $n=4$ and $5$, in terms of weights and degrees. Our expressions are obtained by a purely interpolative method,…
We give a vanishing theorem for the monodromy eigenspaces of the Milnor fibers of complex line arrangements. By applying the modular bound of the local system cohomology groups given by Papadima-Suciu, the result is deduced from the…
According to the Kouchnirenko formula, the Milnor number of a generic isolated singularity with given Newton polyhedron is equal to the alternating sum of certain volumes associated to the Newton polyhedron. In this paper we obtain a…
The paper is devoted to graded algebras having a single homogeneous relation. Using Gerasimov's theorem, a criterion to be N-Koszul is given, providing new examples. An alternative proof of Gerasimov's theorem for N=2 is given. Some related…
In the present paper, we study deformations of polar weighted homogeneous polynomials which are also polar weighted homogeneous polynomials. We describe a round handle decomposition of the Milnor fibration of a deformation of a polar…
In this work we show how to get advantage from the Riemann--Hilbert analysis in order to obtain first and second order differential equations for the orthogonal polynomials and associated functions with a weight on the unit circle. We…
We use Reznick's Theorem for positive homogeneous polynomials to prove an elliptic regularity result for representations of enveloping algebras of Lie algebras. This allows us to relax a technical condition for a sum of squares…
The theory of bi-orthogonal polynomials on the unit circle is developed for a general class of weights leading to systems of recurrence relations and derivatives of the polynomials and their associated functions, and to…
