On a suspension formula for Denef-Loeser zeta functions

Formulas for the topological zeta functions of suspensions by 2 points are due to Artal et al. We generalize these formulas to the motivic level and for arbitrary suspensions, by using a stratification principle and classical techniques of generating functions in toric geometry. The same strategy is used to obtain formulas for the motivic zeta functions of some families of non-isolated singularities related to superisolated, Lê-Yomdin, and weighted Lê-Yomdin singularities.
