Abstract

In 2002, it was conjectured that a free divisor satisfying the so-called Logarithmic Comparison Theorem must be strongly Euler-homogeneous and it was proved for the two-dimensional case. Later, in 2006, it was shown that the conjecture is also true in dimension three, but, today, the answer for the general case remains unknown. In this paper, we use the decomposition of a singular derivation as the sum of a semisimple and a topologically nilpotent derivation that commute in order to deal with this problem. By showing that this decomposition preserves the property of being logarithmic, we are able to give alternative proofs for the low-dimensional known cases.
