Seven combinatorial problems around quasihomogeneous singularities

Abstract

This paper proposes seven combinatorial problems around formulas for the characteristic polynomial and the spectral numbers of a quasihomogeneous singularity. One of them is a new conjecture on the characteristic polynomial. It is an amendment to an old conjecture of Orlik on the integral monodromy of a quasihomogeneous singularity. The search for a combinatorial proof of the new conjecture led us to the seven purely combinatorial problems.
