We study Nash valuations on 3-fold terminal singularities, especially in type cAx/2. We find that, in type cAx/2, exceptional prime divisors computing the minimal discrepancy (which is 1/2 in this case) induce Nash valuations. We conjecture…

We solve the equivariant generalized Nash problem for any non-rational normal variety with torus action of complexity one. Namely, we give an explicit combinatorial description of the Nash order on the set of equivariant divisorial…

Let (X,0) be a germ of complex analytic normal variety, non-singular outside 0. An essential divisor over (X,0) is a divisorial valuation of the field of meromorphic functions on (X,0), whose center on any resolution of the germ is an…

Let $(X,O)$ be a germ of a normal surface singularity, $\pi : \tilde X\longrightarrow X$ be the minimal resolution of singularities and let $A=(a_{i,j})$ be the $n\times n$ symmetrical intersection matrix of the exceptional set of $\tilde…

We study Nash valuations and essential valuations of terminal threefolds of type $cA/r$. If $r=1$ or the given threefold is $\mathbb Q$-factorial, then all the Nash valuations and essential valuations can be completely described. We…

We prove that Nash mapping is bijective for any algebraic surface defined over an algebraically closed field of characteristic 0.

We show that there exists a strong connection between the generic formal neighborhood at a rational arc lying in the Nash set associated with a toric divisorial valuation on a toric variety and the formal neighborhood at the generic point…

Let (S,0) be a germ of complex analytic normal surface. On its minimal resolution, we consider the reduced exceptional divisor E and its irreducible components E_i. The Nash map associates to each irreducible component C_k of the space of…

The embedded Nash problem for a hypersurface in a smooth algebraic variety, is to characterize geometrically the maximal irreducible families of arcs with fixed order of contact along the hypersurface. We show that divisors on minimal…

The Nash problem asks about the existence of a correspondence between families of arcs through singularities of complex varieties and certain types of divisorial valuations. It has been positively settled in dimension 2 by Fern\'andez de…

We prove that, if X is a variety over an uncountable algebraically closed field k of characteristic zero, then any irreducible exceptional divisor E on a resolution of singularities of X which is not uniruled, belongs to the image of the…

We address Nash problem for surface singularities using wedges. We give a refinement of the characterisation of A. Reguera of the image of the Nash map in terms of wedges. Our improvement consists in a characterisation of the bijectivity of…

We survey the proof of the Nash conjecture for surfaces and show how geometric and topological ideas developed in previous articles by the authors influenced it. Later we summarize the main ideas in the higher dimensional statement and…

In this paper we investigate realization theory of a class of non-linear systems, called Nash systems. Nash systems are non-linear systems whose vector fields and readout maps are analytic semi-algebraic functions. In this paper we will…

This paper deals with the Nash problem, which consists in proving that the number of families of arcs on a singular germ of a surface $S$ coincides with the number of irreducible components of the exceptional divisor in the minimal…

This paper shows a finiteness property of a divisorial valuation in terms of arcs. First we show that every divisorial valuation over an algebraic variety corresponds to an irreducible closed subset of the arc space. Then we define the…

The Nash problem on arc families is affirmatively answered for a toric variety by Ishii and Kollar's paper which also shows the negative answer for general case. The Nash problem is one of questions about the relation between arc families…

In this paper we present new proofs using real spectra of the finiteness theorem on Nash trivial simultaneous resolution and the finiteness theorem on Blow-Nash triviality for isolated real algebraic singularities. That is, we prove that a…
