Homological initial-form Milnor-fibre conjecture for isolated singularities

Let f,g ⁣:(Cn,0)(C,0)f,g\colon(\mathbb{C}^n,0)\to(\mathbb{C},0) be holomorphic function-germs with isolated singularities at the origin, and let ff_* and gg_* be their initial forms. Suppose there is a homeomorphism φ ⁣:(Cn,0)(Cn,0)\varphi\colon(\mathbb{C}^n,0)\to(\mathbb{C}^n,0) such that f=gφf=g\circ\varphi. Homological initial-form conjecture. The spaces f1(1)f_*^{-1}(1) and g1(1)g_*^{-1}(1) should have the same homology. This is presented as a weaker isolated-singularity version of the initial-form Milnor-fibre conjecture, and no resolution is supplied in the text.
