Title WINDING NUMBER OF $r$-MODULAR SEQUENCES AND APPLICATIONS TO SINGULARITY CONTENT OF A FANO POLYGON

Author Daniel Cavey and Akihiro Higashitani

(Received April 8, 2019, revised December 4, 2019)
Abstract. By generalising the notion of a unimodular sequence, we create an expression for the winding number of certain ordered sets of lattice points. Since the winding number of the vertices of a Fano polygon is necessarily one, we use this expression as a restriction to classify all Fano polygons without T-singularities and whose singularities in the basket of residual singularities all have equal Gorenstein index.
