A lower bound on the top Betti number of the Milnor fiber

Abstract

We derive a lower bound for the top possibly-non-zero Betti number of the Milnor fiber of an analytic function in terms of the zero-dimensional L\e number and the internal monodromy of the vanishing cycles restricted to the complex link of the critical locus of the function.
