An Algebraic Formula for the Index of a Vector Field on an Isolated Complete Intersection Singularity
Annales de l'Institut Fourier, Volume 58 (2008) no. 5, pp. 1761-1783.

Let (V,0) be a germ of a complete intersection variety in n+k , n>0, having an isolated singularity at 0 and X be the germ of a holomorphic vector field having an isolated zero at 0 and tangent to V. We show that in this case the homological index and the GSV-index coincide. In the case when the zero of X is also isolated in the ambient space n+k we give a formula for the homological index in terms of local linear algebra.

Soit (V,0) un germe d’intersection complète dans n+k , n>0, avec singularité isolée en 0 et soit X un germe de champs de vecteurs holomorphes en n+k tangents à V et qui a une singularité isolée dans V en 0. Nous montrons que dans ce cas l’indice homologique et l’indice GSV coïncident. Dans le cas où le zéro de X est aussi isolé dans l’espace ambiant n+k , nous donnons une formule pour l’indice homologique en terme de l’algèbre linéaire locale.
