Abstract
We present a formula to compute the Brasselet number of \(f:(Y,0)\rightarrow (\mathbb {C}, 0)\) where \(Y\subset X\) is a non-degenerate complete intersection in a toric variety X. As applications we establish several results concerning invariance of the Brasselet number for families of non-degenerate complete intersections. Moreover, when \((X,0) = (\mathbb {C}^n,0)\) we derive sufficient conditions to obtain the invariance of the Euler obstruction for families of complete intersections with an isolated singularity which are contained in X.
