The Milnor fiber of a generic arrangement. (English) Zbl 0807.32029
Let $$V$$ be the union of $$m$$ hyperplanes through the origin of $$\mathbb{C}^ n$$ such that $$m > n$$ and no $$n$$ of these hyperplanes share a line. The authors compute the complex cohomology of the Milnor’s fibre and the characteristic polynomial of the monodromy of the (non-isolated) singularity of $$V$$ at the origin.
