Coinbilling this with Toinari's result [19], we obtain the following :
Corollary 3.4 Lei (If, P) be an isoluted singularity defined by
r3 + h(z,y) = 0. Then we have p(P) 2 6pg(P).
Problems 1) Show the analogous argument as in 53 for any 2-
dilnensional hypersurface triple point.
2) Construct the process of canonical resolution for surfaces of n-
section type.
The detail will be published in our forthcoming paper.
