On indices of meromorphic 1-forms
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 04 December 2007
Abstract
We discuss meromorphic 1-forms on compact complex manifolds and on complete intersections with isolated singularities. We give a Poincaré–Hopf type formula for them, i.e. we express the Euler characteristic in terms of singularities of a meromorphic 1-form. For that we introduce a suitable notion of an index of a germ of a meromorphic 1-form (with an additional structure) on an isolated complete intersection singularity. For a meromorphic 1-form on a complete intersection V with isolated singularities the indices of the singular points sum up to (plus–minus) the Euler characteristic of a smoothing of V.
