Let G be a locally compact group, let X be a universal proper G-space, and let Z be a G-equivariant compactification of X that is H-equivariantly contractible for each compact subgroup H of G. Let W be the resulting boundary. Assuming the…

We prove that every closed orientable surface S of negative Euler characteristic admits a pair of finite-degree covers which are length isospectral over S but generically not simple length isospectral over S. To do this, we first…

In this paper, we establish conditions for a family $\{f_t\}$ of functions, with not necessarily isolated singularities, defined on a toric variety so that the associated family of hypersurfaces $\{f_t^{-1}(0)\}$ is Whitney equisingular. We…

We find all $P$-resolutions of quotient surface singularities (especially, tetrahedral, octahedral, and icosahedral singularities) together with their dual graphs, which reproduces Jan Steven's list [Manuscripta Math. 1993] of the numbers…

Let $\mathcal{F}$ be a singular Riemann surface foliation on a complex manifold $M$, such that the singular set $E \subset M$ is non-discrete. We study the behavior of the foliation near the singular set $E$, particularly focusing on…

Let $X$ be an analytic subset of an open neighbourhood $U$ of the origin $\underline{0}$ in $\mathbb{C}^n$. Let $f\colon (X,\underline{0}) \to (\mathbb{C},0)$ be holomorphic and set $V =f^{-1}(0)$. Let $\B_\epsilon$ be a ball in $U$ of…

For isolated complex hypersurface singularities with real defining equation we show the existence of a monodromy vector field such that complex conjugation intertwines the local monodromy diffeomorphism with its inverse. In particular, it…

We prove several new results on the combinatorial structures of the unit spheres of the norms induced by Thurston's metric on the tangent and cotangent spaces of the Teichm{\"u}ller space of a closed surface of negative Euler…

For an isolated hypersurface singularity which is neither simple nor simple elliptic, it is shown that there exists a distinguished basis of vanishing cycles which contains two basis elements with an arbitrary intersection number. This…

The intersection of a complex plane curve with a small three-sphere surrounding one of its singularities is a non-trivial link. The refined punctual Hilbert schemes of the singularity parameterize subschemes supported at the singular point…

It is well known that a compact two dimensional surface is homeomorphic to a polygon with the edges identified in pairs. This paper not only presents a new proof of this statement but also generalizes it to any connected $n$-dimensional…

We give a complete classification of 1-dimensional exponential families $\mathcal{E}$ defined over a finite space $\Omega=\{x_{0}, ...,x_{n}\}$ whose Hessian scalar curvature is constant. We observe an interesting phenomenon: if…

We consider a family of strongly-asymmetric unimodal maps $\{f_t\}_{t\in [0,1]}$ of the form $f_t=t\cdot f$ where $f\colon [0,1]\to [0,1]$ is unimodal, $f(0)=f(1)=0$, $f(c)=1$ is of the form and $$f(x)=\left\{ \begin{array}{ll}…

The integral variation map and algebraic monodromy of isolated plane curve singularities are important homological invariants of the singularity which are still far from being completely understood. This work provides effective ways of…

Two-sided incompressible surfaces in Seifert fiber spaces with isolated singular fibers are well-understood. Frohman and Rannard have shown that one-sided incompressible surfaces in Seifert fiber spaces which have isolated singular fibers…

We study the invariant theory of singular foliations of the projective plane. Our first main result is that a foliation of degree m>1 is not stable only if it has singularities in dimension 1 or contains an isolated singular point with…

We continue the development of the study of the equisingularity of isolated singularities, in the determinantal case. This version of the paper includes a substantial amount of new material (76% larger). The new material introduces the idea…

In this paper we introduce and study the Euler characteristic associated with algebraic modules generated by arbitrary elements of certain noncommutative polyballs. We provide several asymptotic formulas and prove some of its basic…

Budur, Fernandes de Bobadilla, Le and Nguyen (2022) conjectured that if two germs of holomorphic functions are topologically equivalent, then the Milnor fibres of their initial forms are homotopy equivalent. In this note, we give…

We investigate the cohomology of the Milnor fibre of a reflection arrangement as a module for the group $\Gamma$ generated by the reflections, together with the cyclic monodromy. Although we succeed completely only for unitary reflection…
