In the general case Deligne proved that this formula is only an inequality; Garc\\'ia Barroso and P{\\l}oski stated a conjecture for irreducible power series. In this work we generalize Kouchnirenko's formula for any degenerated power series and also generalize Garc\\'ia Barroso and P{\\l}oski's conjecture. We prove the conjecture in some cases using in particular Greuel and Nguyen.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2024-09-20T14:01:24.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "14H20", "14G17", "14B05" ], "keywords": [ "plane curve singularities", "arbitrary characteristic", "milnor number", "conjecture", "general case deligne" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 0, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
