Bruce-Roberts Numbers and Quasihomogeneous Functions on Analytic Varieties

Abstract

Given a germ of an analytic variety $X$ and a germ of a holomorphic function $f$ with a stratified isolated singularity with respect to the logarithmic stratification of $X$, we show that under certain conditions on the singularity type of the pair $(f,X)$, the following relative analog of the well known K. Saito's theorem holds true: equality of the relative Milnor and Tjurina numbers of f with respect to X (also known as Bruce-Roberts numbers) is equivalent to the relative quasihomogeneity of the pair $(f,X)$, i.e. to the existence of a coordinate system such that both $f$ and $X$ are quasihomogeneous with respect to the same positive rational weights.
