Open publisher page 2 citations

Abstract

Consider an isolated two-dimensional complex analytic hypersurface singularity $(V,p)$. A relation is given between the abstract topology of $(V,p)$ and the multiplicity of $(V,p)$, yielding an upper bound for the multiplicity. This relation is a necessary condition for a Gorenstein singularity to be a hypersurface.
