Streszczenie

The Łojasiewicz exponent of the gradient of a convergent power series h(X,Y) with complex coefficients is the greatest lower bound of the set of λ > 0 such that the inequality $|grad h(x,y)| ≥ c|(x,y)|^λ$ holds near $0 ∈ C^2$ for a certain c > 0. In the paper, we give an estimate of the Łojasiewicz exponent of grad h using information from the Newton diagram of h. We obtain the exact value of the exponent for non-degenerate series.
