Abstract
We prove that, for anyn strictly greater than 2, there exist nonisotopic algebraic spherical knots of dimension 2n−1 which are cobordant. We first consider plane curve singularities. In that case we determine the Witt-class of the associated rational Seifert form and we attach to such a singularity a finite abelian group which is an invariant of the integral monodromy. This allows us to gather information about cobordism and isotopy classes of the higher dimensional algebraic knots obtained after suspension, by means of the dictionary relating knots and Seifert forms.
