    In 2011 Lemahieu and Van Proeyen proved the Monodromy Conjecture for the local topological zeta function of a non-degenerate surface singularity. The authors start from their work and obtain the same result for Igusa's \(p\)-adic and the motivic zeta function. In the \(p\)-adic case, this is, for a polynomial \(f\in\mathbf{Z}[x,y,z]\) satisfying \(f(0,0,0)=0\) and non-degenerate with respect to its Newton polyhedron, we show that every pole of the local \(p\)-adic zeta function of \(f\) induces an eigenvalue of the local monodromy of \(f\) at some point of \(f^{-1}(0)\subset\mathbf{C}^3\) close to the origin.

    Essentially the entire paper is dedicated to proving that, for \(f\) as above, certain candidate poles of Igusa's \(p\)-adic zeta function of \(f\), arising from so-called \(B_1\)-facets of the Newton polyhedron of \(f\), are actually not poles. This turns out to be much harder than in the topological setting. The combinatorial proof is preceded by a study of the integral points in three-dimensional fundamental parallelepipeds. Together with the work of Lemahieu and Van Proeyen, this main result leads to the Monodromy Conjecture for the \(p\)-adic and motivic zeta function of a non-degenerate surface singularity.
