In this paper we study the Milnor fibrations associated to real analytic map germs $\psi:(\mathbb{R}^{m},0) \to (\mathbb{R}^2,0)$ with isolated critical point at $0\in \mathbb{R}^{m}$. The main result relates the existence of called Strong…

We address the question "when the local image of a map is well defined" and answer it in case of holomorphic map germs with target $(\bC^{2}, 0)$. We prove a criterion for holomorphic map germs $(X, x)\to (Y, y)$ to be locally open, solving…

We prove extensions of Milnor's theorem for germs with nonisolated singularity and use them to find new classes of genuine real analytic mappings $\psi$ with positive dimensional singular locus $\Sing \psi \subset \psi^{-1}(0)$, for which…

We provide significant conditions under which we prove the existence of stable open book structures at infinity, i.e. on spheres $S^{m-1}_R$ of large enough radius $R$. We obtain new classes of real polynomial maps $\mathbb R^m \to \mathbb…

If $R$ is a real analytic set in $\C^n$ (viewed as $\R^{2n}$), then for any point $p\in R$ there is a uniquely defined germ $X_p$ of the smallest complex analytic variety which contains $R_p$, the germ of $R$ at $p$. It is shown that if $R$…

For a map germ $G$ with target $(\mathbb C^{p}, 0)$ or $(\mathbb R^{p}, 0)$ with $p\ge 2$, we address two phenomena which do not occur when $p=1$: the image of $G$ may be not well-defined as a set germ, and a local fibration near the origin…

The image of a holomorphic map germ is not necessarily locally open, and it is not always well-defined as a set germ. We find the structure of what becomes the image of a map germ when the target is a surface. We encode it as a decorated…

Consider real-analytic mapping-germs, (R^n,o)-> (R^m,o). They can be equivalent (by coordinate changes) complex-analytically, but not real-analytically. However, if the transformation of complex-equivalence is identity modulo higher order…

In this paper, we study the topology of real analytic map-germs with isolated critical value $f: (\mathbb{R}^m,0) \to (\mathbb{R}^n,0)$, with $1 <n <m$. We compare the topology of $f$ with the topology of the compositions $\pi_i^* \circ f$,…

We give conditions under which a germ of a holomorphic mapping in $\Bbb C^N$, mapping an irreducible real algebraic set into another of the same dimension, is actually algebraic. Let $A\subset \bC^N$ be an irreducible real algebraic set.…

For analytic map germs $f: (\mathbb{R}^n, 0)\to (\mathbb{R}, 0)$ having an isolated critical value in the origin with $\dim V(f)>0$ and satisfying the transversality property of D.B. Massey we show that for $c>0$ a large enough constant,…

We give necessary and sufficient conditions of infinite determinacy for smooth function germs whose critical locus contains a given set. This set is assumed to be the zero variety X of some analytic map germ having maximal rank on a dense…

Exposed positive maps in matrix algebras define a dense subset of extremal maps. We provide a sufficient condition for a positive map to be exposed. This is an analog of a spanning property which guaranties that a positive map is optimal.…

In this paper, we discuss the concept of $\rho$-regularity of analytic map germs and its close relationship with the existence of locally trivial smooth fibrations, known as the Milnor fibrations. The presence of a Thom regular…

Systems of germs of sets in infinite-dimensional spaces are introduced and studied. Such a system corresponds to a local zero-set of an ideal of the ring of analytic functions of infinite number of variables. Conversely, this system of…

Consider (analytic, resp. algebraic) map-germs, Maps((k^n,o),(k^m,o)). These germs are traditionally studied up to the right, let-right and contact equivalences. Below G is one of these groups. An important tool in this study is the Artin…

We study corank one $A$-finite germs $f:(\mathbb{R}^n,0)\rightarrow (\mathbb{R}^{n+1},0)$ and their complexifications. More precisely, we study when these germs provide good real pictures of the complex germs, i.e., when there is a real…

Using nonstandard analysis we define a topology on the ring of germs of functions: $(mathbb R^n,0)\rightarrow(mathbb R,0)$. We prove that this topology is absolutely convex, Hausdorff, that convergent nets of continuous germs have…

The central purpose of this article is to establish new inverse and implicit function theorems for differentiable maps with isolated critical points. One of the key ingredients is a discovery of the fact that differentiable maps with…

Jean Saint Raymond asked whether continuously differentiable maps with isolated critical points are necessarily open in infinite dimensional (Hilbert) spaces. We answer this question negatively by constructing counterexamples in various…
