Existence conjecture for hypersurfaces with prescribed isolated singularities
Let be a projective algebraic variety of dimension , let be a very ample linear system on , and let be singularity types with Milnor numbers . Existence conjecture for prescribed singularities. There exists a constant such that, for each collection of singularity types and for each positive integer satisfying
a hypersurface exists with exactly isolated singularities of types , respectively. This is the expected higher-dimensional analogue of the existence results for curves with prescribed singularities; the source presents it as an open problem for hypersurfaces of dimension greater than one, where the discussion is restricted to analytic types.
