A note on the Łojasiewicz exponent of non-degenerate isolated hypersurface singularities

. We prove that in order to find the value of the Łojasiewicz exponent ł ( f ) of a Kouchnirenko non-degenerate holomorphic function f : ( C n , 0) → ( C , 0) with an isolated singular point at the origin, it is enough to find this value for any other (possibly simpler) function g : ( C n , 0) → ( C , 0) , provided this function is also Kouchnirenko non-degenerate and has the same Newton diagram as f does. We also state a more general problem, and then reduce it to a Teissier-like result on (c)-cosecant deformations, for formal power series with coefficients in an algebraically closed field K .
