On $\mu$-Zariski pairs of links

The notion of Zariski pairs for projective curves in $\mathbb P^2$ is known since the pioneer paper of Zariski \cite{Zariski} and for further development, we refer the reference in \cite{Bartolo}.In this paper, we introduce a notion of Zariski pair of links in the class of isolated hypersurface singularities. Such a pair is canonically produced from a Zariski (or a weak Zariski ) pair of curves $C=\{f(x,y,z)=0\}$ and $C'=\{g(x,y,z)=0\}$ of degree $d$ by simply adding a monomial $z^{d+m}$ to $f$ and $g$ so that the corresponding affine hypersurfaces have isolated singularities at the origin. They have a same zeta function and a same Milnor number (\cite{Almost}). We give new examples of Zariski pairs which have the same $\mu^*$ sequence and a same zeta function but two functions belong to different connected components of $\mu$-constant strata (Theorem \ref{mu-zariski}). Two link 3-folds are not diffeomorphic and they are distinguished by the first homology which implies the Jordan form of their monodromies are different (Theorem \ref{main2}). We start from weak Zariski pairs of projective curves to construct new Zariski pairs of surfaces which have non-diffeomorphic link 3-folds. We also prove that hypersurface pair constructed from a Zariski pair give a diffeomorphic links (Theorem \ref{main3}).
