Benedetti–Shiota conjecture on real algebraic links
Benedetti–Shiota conjecture on real algebraic links
Let be a polynomial map with an isolated singularity at the origin, meaning that , its first derivatives vanish at the origin, and its Jacobian has full rank away from the origin in some neighbourhood. For sufficiently small , its zero set intersects
in the link of the singularity. A link is real algebraic if it arises in this way. Benedetti–Shiota conjecture. A link is real algebraic if and only if it is fibered.
Milnor's theorem gives the forward implication: every real algebraic link is fibered. The conjecture asserts the converse, which is not established in the supplied text.
