Abstract

There are some generalizations of the classical Eisenbud-Levine-Khimshashvili formula for the index of a singular point of an analytic vector field on Rn for vector fields on singular varieties. We offer an alternative approach based on the study of indices of 1-forms instead of vector fields. When the variety under consideration is a real isolated complete intersection singularity (icis), we define an index of a (real) 1-form on it. In the complex setting we define an index of a holomorphic 1-form on a complex icis and express it as the dimension of a certain algebra. In the real setting, for an icis V=f−1(0), f:(Cn,0)→(Ck,0), f is real, we define a complex analytic family of quadratic forms parameterized by the points ϵ of the image (Ck,0) of the map f, which become real for real ϵ and in this case their signatures defer from the "real" index by χ(Vϵ)−1, where χ(Vϵ) is the Euler characteristic of the corresponding smoothing Vϵ=f−1(ϵ)∩Bδ of the icis V.
