Hyperplane arrangements with non-formal Milnor fibers

Abstract

Each complex hyperplane arrangement $\mathcal{A}$ gives rise to a Milnor fibration of its complement. Building on work of Zuber, we give a combinatorial sufficient condition for the Milnor fiber $F(\mathcal{A})$ to be non-$1$-formal, expressed in terms of the multinet structure on $\mathcal{A}$, and use it to produce an infinite family of monomial arrangements $\mathcal{A}(3k,3k,3)$
