Higher rational and higher Du Bois singularities have recently been introduced as natural generalizations of the standard definitions of rational and Du Bois singularities. In this note, we discuss these properties for isolated…
Phase singularities are loci of darkness surrounded by monochromatic light in a scalar field, with applications in optical trapping, super-resolution imaging, and structured light-matter interactions. Although 1D singular structures, such…
We recover the Newton diagram (modulo a natural ambiguity) from the link for any surface hypersurface singularity with non-degenerate Newton principal part whose link is a rational homology sphere. As a corollary, we show that the link…
We prove a "strong" Durfee-type inequality for isolated hypersurface surface singularities, which implies Durfee's strong conjecture for such singularities with non-negative topological Euler number of the exceptional set of the minimal…
A sequence of monoidal transformations is defined, in terms of invariants, for a singular hypersurface embedded in a smooth scheme of positive characteristic. Some examples are added to illustrate the improvement of singularities by this…
We consider a class of singular foliations in the sense of Androulidakis and Skandalis that we call transverse order $k$ foliations. These have a finite number of leaves: one hypersurface (the singular leaf) together with the components of…
We study a specific class of deformations of curve singularities: the case when the singular point splits to several ones, such that the total $\delta$ invariant is preserved. These are also known as equi-normalizable or equi-generic…
Topology is a powerful framework for controlling and manipulating light, minimizing detrimental perturbations on the photonic properties. Combining nanophotonics with topological concepts presents opportunities for both fundamental physics…
The Aluffi algebra is algebraic definition of characteristic cycles of a hypersurface in intersection theory. In this paper we focus on the Aluffi algebra of quasi-homogeneous and locally Eulerian hypersurface with isolated singularities.…
The authors study singular points of lightlike hypersurfaces of the de Sitter space S^{n+1}_1 and the geometry of hypersurfaces and use them for construction of an invariant normalization and an invariant affine connection of lightlike…
We show that the inclusion of a term $C_{abcd}C^{abcd}$ in the action can remove the recently described anisotropic singularity occurring on the hypersurface $F(\phi)=0$ of scalar-tensor theories of gravity of the type $$ S=\int d^4x…
We present herewith certain thoughts on the important subject of nowadays physics, pertaining to the so-called ``singularities'', that emanated from looking at the theme in terms of ADG (: abstract differential geometry). Thus, according to…
This is a survey article, with essentially complete proofs, of a series of recent results concerning the geometry of the characteristic foliation on smooth divisors in compact hyperk\"ahler manifolds, starting with work by Hwang-Viehweg,…
In the recent articles by Alper, Eastwood and Isaev, it was conjectured that all rational $GL_n({\mathbb C})$-invariant functions of forms of degree $d\ge 3$ on ${\mathbb C}^n$ can be extracted, in a canonical way, from those of forms of…
We present a non-standard proof of the fact that the existence of a local (i.e. restricted to a point) characteristic-zero, semi-parametric lifting for a variety defined by the zero locus of polynomial equations over the integers is…
We study equisingular deformation problems for curves and surfaces in algebraic families, with particular emphasis on situations where nodal behavior is no longer generic. Extending classical Severi theory, we develop deformation--theoretic…
In this paper we investigate Abel maps on normal surface singularities described in \cite{NNI}. We investigate the affine version of the class of the images of Abel maps on normal surface singularities. More precisely we consider the…
In this note, we provide a complete classification for entire area maximizing hypersurfaces having an isolated singularity. We also construct an interesting illustrated example. For area maximizing hypersurfaces over exterior domains, we…
In this survey article we introduce the notion of frontals, which provides a class of generalised submanifolds with singularities but with well-defined tangent spaces. We present a review of basic theory and known studies on frontals in…
Algebraic geometry, although little explored in signal processing, provides tools that are very convenient for investigating generic properties in a wide range of applications. Generic properties are properties that hold "almost…
