Singularities of 3d vector fields preserving the form of Martinet

Dynamical Systems 2024-07-23 v3

Abstract

We study the local structure of vector fields on R3\mathbb{R}^3 which preserve the Martinet 11-form α=(1+x)dy±zdz\alpha=(1+x)dy\pm zdz. We present the classification of their singularities, up to diffeomorphisms preserving the form α\alpha, as well as their transversal unfoldings. We are thus able to provide a fairly complete list of the bifurcations such vector fields undergo.
