Generic smooth plane-to-plane map germs are topologically equivalent to cones of mappings of the circle. We carry out a complete topological classification of smooth stable mappings of the circle and show how this classification leads, via…
We introduce several sufficient conditions to guarantee the existence of the Milnor vector field for new classes of singularities of map germs. This special vector field is related with the equivalence problem of the Milnor fibrations for…
In this paper, we establish a new criterion for covering maps between real algebraic varieties. Specifically, we prove that a quasi-finite, flat morphism with locally constant geometric fibers between varieties over a real closed field…
One proves a far-reaching upper bound for the degree of a generically finite rational map between projective varieties over a base field of arbitrary characteristic. The bound is expressed as a product of certain degrees that appear…
We establish the existence and uniqueness of rational conformal maps of minimal degree $n+1$ for opening up $n$ arcs. In earlier results, the degree was exponential in $n$. We also discuss two related problems. (a) We establish existence of…
We show that the knot type of the link of a real analytic map germ with isolated singularity $f\colon(\mathbb{R}^2,0)\to(\mathbb{R}^4,0)$ is a complete invariant for $C^0$-$\mathscr A$-equivalence. Moreover, we also prove that isolated…
In this paper, two sufficient conditions are provided for given two K-equivalent map-germs to be bi-Lipschitz A-equivalent. These are Lipschitz analogues of the known results on C^r-A-equivalence $(0 \leq r \leq \infty)$ for given two…
Assume that there exists a smooth map between two closed manifolds $M^m\to N^k$ with only finitely many cone-like singular points, where $2\leq k\leq m\leq 2k-1$. If $(m,k)\not\in\{(2,2), (4,3), (5,3), (8,5), (16,9)\}$, then $M^m$ admits a…
We prove under certain conditions that any stable unfolding of a quasi-homogeneous map-germ with finite singularity type is substantial. We then prove that if an equidimensional map-germ is finitely determined, of corank 1, and either it…
We give formulas and effective sharp bounds for the degree of multi-graded rational maps and provide some effective and computable criteria for birationality in terms of their algebraic and geometric properties. We also extend the Jacobian…
Let $F:(\mathbb{C}^2,0)\to (\mathbb{C}^n,0)$ be the germ of a finite map and $(X,0)$ be its image. We will in this article using the topology of the link show that $(X,0)$ has to be a quotient singularity if it is normal and describe the…
We prove the existence of a genus-zero complete maximal map with a prescribed singularity set and an arbitrary number of simple and complete ends. We also discuss the conditions under which this maximal map can be made into a complete…
In this paper we give a formula for counting the number of isolated stable singularities of a stable perturbation of corank 1 germs $f:\C^n,0\to \C^p,0$ with $n<p$ that appear in the image $f(\C^n).$ We also define a set of ${\cal…
A map between connected $2$-manifolds has a geometric kernel if it sends a non-contractible simple loop to a null-homotopic loop. While every non-$\pi_1$-injective map between compact surfaces admits a geometric kernel, this generally fails…
Let $Crit M$ denote the minimal number of critical points (not necessarily non-degenerate) on a closed smooth manifold $M$. We are interested in the evaluation of $Crit$. It is worth noting that we do not know yet whether $Crit M$ is a…
Maps that are not completely positive (CP) are often useful to describe the dynamics of open systems. An apparent violation of complete positivity can occur because there are prior correlations of the principal system with the environment,…
The purpose of this paper is to understand generic behavior of constraint functions in optimization problems relying on singularity theory of smooth mappings. To this end, we will focus on the subgroup $\mathcal{K}[G]$ of the Mather's group…
For any positive integers m and n, the word map (x,y) -> x^m y^n is almost measure preserving on large finite simple groups G.
This paper answers several open questions around structures with o-minimal open core. We construct an expansion of an o-minimal structure $\mathcal{R}$ by a unary predicate such that its open core is a proper o-minimal expansion of…
We consider a corank $1$, finitely determined, quasi-homogeneous map germ $f$ from $(\mathbb{C}^2,0)$ to $(\mathbb{C}^3,0)$. We describe the embedded topological type of a generic hyperplane section of $f(\mathbb{C}^2)$, denoted by…
