Dimca–Greuel's 4/34/3 conjecture for plane curve singularities

Let fC[[x,y]]f\in\mathbb{C}[[x,y]] be an isolated hypersurface singularity, with Milnor number μ\mu and Tjurina number τ\tau. Dimca–Greuel's conjecture.

μτ<43.\frac{\mu}{\tau}<\frac{4}{3}.

The conjecture was proved completely by P. Almirón in 2022, after earlier results for irreducible plane curves and semi-quasi-homogeneous singularities.
