We study a germ of real analytic n-dimensional submanifold of $C^n$ that has a complex tangent space of maximal dimension at a CR singularity. Under the condition that its complexification admits the maximum number of deck transformations,…
Classically, regular homomorphisms have been defined as a replacement for Abel--Jacobi maps for smooth varieties over an algebraically closed field. In this work, we interpret regular homomorphisms as morphisms from the functor of families…
A vector field s on a Riemannian manifold M is said to be harmonic if there exists a member of a 2-parameter family of generalised Cheeger-Gromoll metrics on TM with respect to which s is a harmonic section. If M is a simply-connected…
In this article, we first describe a normal form of real-analytic, Levi-nondegenerate submanifolds of $C^N$ of codimension d $\ge$ 1 under the action of formal biholomorphisms, that is, of perturbations of Levi-nondegenerate hyperquadrics.…
This paper has two parts. We first survey recent efforts on the Bloom conjecture which still remains open in the case of complex dimension at least 4. Bloom's conjecture concerns the equivalence of three regular types. There is a more…
This paper serves as a first foray on regularisation for planar vector fields. Motivated by singularities in celestial mechanics, the block regularisation of a generic class of degenerate singularities is studied. The paper is concerned…
Indices of vector fields on (complex analytic) singular varieties have been considered by various authors from several different viewpoints. All these indices coincide with the classical local index of Poincar\'e-Hopf when the ambient…
We introduce combinatorial multivector fields, associate with them multivalued dynamics and study their topological features. Our combinatorial multivector fields generalize combinatorial vector fields of Forman. We define isolated…
Understanding how singularities behave under small perturbations is a central theme in singularity theory. In this paper we establish sufficient conditions for families of analytic function-germs on a germ of a complex analytic space to…
We classify complete biharmonic surfaces with parallel mean curvature vector field and non-negative Gaussian curvature in complex space forms.
Consider a real algebraic variety, $\R X$, of dimension $d$. If its complexification, $\C X$, is a rational homology manifold (at least in a neighborhood of $\R X$), then the intersection form in $\C X$ defines a bilinear form in…
We deal with the following closely related problems: (i) For a germ of a reduced plane analytic curve, what is the minimal degree of an algebraic curve with a singular point analytically equivalent (isomorphic) to the given one? (ii) For a…
We study germs of smooth vector fields in a neighborhood of a fixed point having an hyperbolic linear part at this point. It is well known that the "small divisors" are invisible either for the smooth linearization or normal form problem.…
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…
When a singular point of a vector field passes through resonance, a formal invariant cone appears. In the seventies, Pyartli proved that for $(-1,1)$-resonance the cone is in fact analytic and is the degeneration of a family of invariant…
We give a canonical form for a complex matrix, whose square is normal, under transformations of unitary similarity as well as a canonical form for a real matrix, whose square is normal, under transformations of orthogonal similarity.
We consider a class of three-dimensional systems having an equilibrium point at the origin, whose principal part is of the form (-Dy h(x, y), Dx h(x,y), f(x,y))^T . This principal part, which has zero divergence and does not depend on the…
A new approach to normal operators in real Hilbert spaces is discussed, and a spectral representation is obtained, derived directly from the complex case. The results are then applied to quaternionic normal operators, regarded as a special…
We discuss normal forms and symplectic invariants of parabolic orbits and cuspidal tori in integrable Hamiltonian systems with two degrees of freedom. Such singularities appear in many integrable systems in geometry and mathematical physics…
One of the various versions of the classical Lyapunov-Poincar\'e center theorem states that a nondegenerate real analytic center type planar vector field singularity admits an analytic first integral. In a more proof of this result, R.…
