On the mixed Hodge structure on the cohomology of the Milnor fibre (Q1089052)

The aim of the paper under review is to introduce a mixed Hodge structure on the cohomology of the Milnor fibre of an isolated hypersurface singularity. Such an attempt was already done earlier in 1976 [see \textit{J. H. M. Steenbrink} in Real and complex singularities, Proc. Nordic Summer Sch., Symp. Math., Oslo 1976, 525-563 (1977; Zbl 0373.14007)] by using completely different methods. The main difference here is that the authors use the theory of holonomic D-modules in one variable with regular singularity (instead of using the resolution of singularities). This second approach has the advantage that one can better understand the Hodge filtration and it is more suited for applications. At the end of the paper the mixed Hodge structure is explicitly computed on two examples.
