- Overview:
- A library for computing the signature of irreducible surface singularity.
The signature of a surface singularity is defined in [3]. The algorithm we
use has been proposed in [9].
Let g in C[x,y] define an isolated curve singularity at 0 in C^2 and
f:=z^N+g(x,y). The zero-set V:=V(f) in C^3 of f has an isolated singularity
at 0. For a small e>0 let V_e:=V(f-e) in C^3 be the Milnor fibre of (V,0) and
s: H_2(V_e,R) x H_2(V_e,R) ---> R be the intersection form (cf. [1],[7]).
H_2(V_e,R) is an m-dimensional R-vector space, m the Milnor number of (V,0)
(cf. [1],[4],[5],[6]), and s is a symmetric bilinear form.
Let sigma(f) be the signature of s, called the signature of the surface
singularity (V,0). Formulaes to compute the signature are given by Nemethi
(cf. [8],[9]) and van Doorn, Steenbrink (cf. [2]).
We have implemented three approaches using Puiseux expansions, the resolution
of singularities resp. the spectral pairs of the singularity.
