In this paper we address the problem of classifying complex (non-homogeneous) quasihomogeneous polynomials in two variables under bi-Lipschitz equivalence. We prove that pairs of such polynomials are (right) bi-Lipschitz equivalent as…

We show that two bi-Lipschitz equivalent Brieskorn-Pham hypersurfaces have the same multiplicities at $0$. Moreover we show that if two algebraic $(n-1)$-dimensional cones $P, R\subset\mathbb C^n$ with isolated singularities are…

In this article, we show the H\"older invariance of the Henry-Parusinski invariant. For a single germ $ f$, the Henry-Parusinski invariant of $ f $ is given in terms of the leading coefficients of the asymptotic expansion of $ f $ along the…

We show that for every $k\ge 3$ there exist complex algebraic cones of dimension $k$ with isolated singularities, which are bi-Lipschitz and semi-algebraically equivalent but they have different degrees. We also prove that homeomorphic…

In the paper \cite{renato} Renato Targino shows that bi-Lipschitz type of plane curve is determined by the local ambient topological properties of curves. Here we show that it is not longer true in higher dimensions. However we show that…

The multiplicity of an algebraic curve $C$ in the complex plane at a point $p$ on that curve is defined as the number of points that occur at the intersection of $C$ with a general complex line that passes close to the point $p$. It is…

We classify semi-algebraic surfaces in $\mathbb{R}^n$ with isolated singularities up to bi-Lipschitz homeomorphisms with respect to the inner distance. In particular, we obtain complete classifications for the Nash surfaces and the complex…

The paper is devoted to metric properties of singularities. We investigate the relations among topology, metric properties and smoothness. In particular, we present some higher dimensional analogous of Mumford's theorem on smoothness of…

It was conjectured that multiplicity of a singularity is bi-Lipschitz invariant. We disprove this conjecture, constructing examples of bi-Lipschitz equivalent complex algebraic singularities with different values of multiplicity.

In this paper, we prove Fukui-Kurdyka-Paunescu's Conjecture, which says that subanalytic arc-analytic bi-Lipschitz homeomorphisms preserve the multiplicities of real analytic sets. We also prove several other results on the invariance of…

Let $X$ be a closed semialgebraic set of dimension $k.$ If $n\ge 2k+1$, then there is a bi-Lipschitz and semialgebraic embedding of $X$ into $\Bbb R^n.$ Moreover, if $n \ge 2k+2$, then this embedding is unique (up to a bi-Lipschitz and…

We address the question of the bi-Lipschitz local triviality of a complex polynomial function over a complex value. Our main result state that a non constant complex polynomial admits a locally bi-Lipschitz trivial value if and only if it…

We study invariance of multiplicity of complex analytic germs and degree of complex affine sets under outer bi-Lipschitz transformations (outer bi-Lipschitz homeomorphims of germs in the first case and outer bi-Lipschitz homeomorphims at…

We prove that the set of non-properness of a polynomial mapping of the three dimensional space which is a local homeomorphism cannot be homeomorphic to the real line $\R.$

We prove that any complex analytic set in $\mathbb{C}^n$ which is Lipschitz normally embedded at infinity and has tangent cone at infinity that is a linear subspace of $\mathbb{C}^n$ must be an affine linear subspace of $\mathbb{C}^n$…

We prove that tangent cones of Lipschitz normally embedded sets are Lipschitz normally embedded. We also extend to real subanalytic sets the notion of reduced tangent cone and we show that subanalytic Lipschitz normally embedded sets have…

We give partial answers to a metric version of Zariski's multiplicity conjecture. In particular, we prove the multiplicity of complex analytic surface (not necessarily isolated) singularities in $\mathbb{C}^3$ is a bi-Lipschitz invariant.

We prove that if two germs of irreducible complex analytic curves at $0\in\mathbb{C}^2$ have different sequence of characteristic exponents, then there exists $0<\alpha<1$ such that those germs are not $\alpha$-H\"older homeomorphic. For…

Two blow-analytically equivalent real analytic plane function germs are sub-analytically bi-Lipschitz contact equivalent

Two subset germs of Euclidean spaces are called blow-spherically equivalent, if their spherical modifications are homeomorphic and the homeomorphism induces homeomorphic tangent links. Blow-spherical equivalence is stronger than the…
