We consider curves which go around Whitney umbrella. Then we consider the geodesic and the normal curvatures, ruled surfaces generated by the normal vector and normal developable surfaces with respect to the tangent and bi-tangent vectors…

It is proved that any smooth open Whitney umbrella in $\mathbb C^2$ is locally polynomially convex near the singular point.

We consider height functions on symmetric spaces $M\cong G/K$ embedded in the associated matrix Lie group $G$. In particular we study the relationship between the critical sets of the height function on $G$ and its restriction to $M$. Also…

We study geometry of curves passing through a Whitney umbrella by using a Darboux frame along it. We define three invariants by using Frenet-Serre type formula relating to the geodesic curvature, the normal curvature, and the geodesic…

The paper considers a class of Lagrangian surfaces in $\mathbb C^2$ with isolated singularities of the unfolded Whitney umbrella type. We prove that generically such a surface is locally polynomially convex near a singular point of this…

We propose to study deformation quantizations of Whitney functions. To this end, we extend the notion of a deformation quantization to algebras of Whitney functions over a singular set, and show the existence of a deformation quantization…

We introduce the rotation unfolding of the folding map of a surface in $\mathbb{R}^3$, and investigate its $\mathcal{A}$-vesality. The rotation unfolding is a 2-parameter unfolding and can be considered as a subfamily of the folding family,…

To study a one parameter deformation of an $S_1$ singularity taking into consideration its differential geometric properties, we give a form representing the deformation using only diffeomorphisms on the source and isometries of the target.…

It is well-known that cross caps on surfaces in the Euclidean 3-space can be expressed in Bruce-West's normal form, which is a special local coordinate system centered at the singular point. In this paper, we show a certain kind of…

We study the reflectional symmetry of a surface in the Euclidean 3-dimensional space with a cross-cap singularity with respect to planes. This symmetry is picked up by the singularities of folding maps on the cross-cap. We give a list of…

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 describe singularities of height functions on singular surfaces in $\mathbb{R}^3$ parameterized by smooth map-germs $\mathcal{A}$-equivalent to one of $S_k$, $B_k$, $C_k$ and $F_4$ singularities in terms of extended geometric language…

We study analytic properties of height zeta functions of equivariant compactifications of the Heisenberg group.

We define various height functions for motives over number fields. We compare these height functions with classical height functions on algebraic varieties, and also with analogous height functions for variations of Hodge structures on…

We characterize the boundedness of square functions in the upper half-space with general measures. The short proof is based on an averaging identity over good Whitney regions.

The umbral approach provides methods for comprehending and redefining special functions. This approach is employed efficiently in order to uncover intricacies and introduce new families of special functions. In this article, the umbral…

We consider families of Calabi-Yau n-folds containing singular fibres and study relations between the occurring singularity structure and the decomposition of the local Weil zeta-function. For 1-parameter families, this provides new…

The crease flow, replacing the Hamiltonian system used for the evolution of crease sets on black hole horizons, is introduced and its bifurcation properties for null hypersurfaces are discussed. We state the conditions of nondegeneracy and…

We prove singularity of some distributions of random continued fractions that correspond to iterated function systems with overlap and a parabolic point. These arose while studying the conductance of Galton-Watson trees.

The objective of this paper is twofold. In the first half of the paper, we investigate upper parts of the hyperspace convergences determined by uniform convergence of distance functionals on a bornology under different metrizations of a…
