Let $V$ be a hypersurface with an isolated singularity at the origin defined by the holomorphic function $f:(\mathbb{C}^{n},0)\rightarrow (\mathbb{C},0)$. The Yau algebra, $L(V)$, is the Lie algebra of derivations of the moduli algebra of $V$. It is a finite-dimensional solvable algebra and its dimension $\unicode[STIX]{x1D706}(V)$ is the Yau number. Fewnomial singularities are those which can be defined by an $n$-nomial in $n$ indeterminates. Yau and Zuo [‘A sharp upper estimate conjecture for the Yau number of weighted homogeneous isolated hypersurface singularity’, Pure Appl. Math. Q.12(1) (2016), 165–181] conjectured a bound for the Yau number and proved that this conjecture holds for binomial isolated hypersurface singularities. In this paper, we verify this conjecture for weighted homogeneous fewnomial surface singularities.
