We study singularities f in K[[x_1,...,x_n]] over an algebraically closed field K of arbitrary characteristic with respect to right respectively contact equivalence, and we establish that the finiteness of the Milnor respectively the…

We study idempotent measures and the structure of the convolution semigroups of measures over definable groups. We isolate the property of generic transitivity and demonstrate that it is sufficient (and necessary) to develop stable group…

An old conjecture of Durfee 1978 bounds the ratio of two basic invariants of complex isolated complete intersection surface singularities: the Milnor number and the singularity (or geometric) genus. We give a counterexample for the case of…

We compute the image of the Milnor lattice of an ADE singularity under a period map. We also prove that the Milnor latticecan be identified with an appropriate relative $K$-group defined through the Berglund-H\"ubsch dual of the…

We consider four related problems. (1) Obtaining dimension estimates for the set of exceptional vantage points for the pinned Falconer distance problem. (2) Nonlinear projection theorems, in the spirit of Kaufman, Bourgain, and Shmerkin.…

This paper continues our researches \cite{DS1, DS2, DS3} by computing some invariants based on Hilbert-Poincar\'{e} series associated to Milnor algebras. Our computations are for some of the classical surfaces and 3-folds with different…

This paper develops a theory of isolated hypersurface singularities in mixed characteristic $(0,p)$, focusing on quotient rings over a Discrete Valuation Ring (DVR). We introduce and study analogues of the classical Tjurina and Milnor…

Let f be an isolated plane curve singularity with Milnor fiber of genus at least 5. For all such f, we give (a) an intrinsic description of the geometric monodromy group that does not invoke the notion of the versal deformation space, and…

Uniqueness of the finite element solution for nonmonotone quasilinear problems of elliptic type is established in one and two dimensions. In each case, we prove a comparison theorem based on locally bounding the variation of the discrete…

We introduce a general framework, based on \'etale topological categories, for studying discrete restriction semigroups and their algebras. Generalizing Paterson's universal groupoid of an inverse semigroup, we define the universal category…

Let $V$ be a finite dimensional $k$-vector space, where $k$ is an algebraic closed field of characteristic zero. Let $G \subseteq \mathrm{SL}(V)$ be a finite abelian group, and denote by $S$ the $G$-invariant subring of the polynomial ring…

This paper is concerned with the construction of special metrics on non-compact 4-manifolds which arise as resolutions of complex orbifold singularities. Our study is close in spirit to the construction of the hyperkaehler gravitational…

In this survey, we review part of the theory of superisolated surface singularities (SIS) and its applications including some new and recent developments. The class of SIS singularities is, in some sense, the simplest class of germs of…

Let $X$ be a projective algebraic $d$-variety endowed with isolated determinantal singularities, and let $\omega$ be a $1$-form on $X$ exhibiting a finite number of singularities (in the stratified sense). Under some technical conditions,…

We provide a new method to calculate the full microlocal description of singularities of Feynman integrals. This is done by associating a unique constructible function to the system of partial differential equations (PDEs) annihilating the…

Let $X\subseteq \mathbb{P}^N$ be a non-degenerate normal projective variety of codimension $e$ and degree $d$ with isolated $\mathbb{Q}$-Gorenstein singularities. We prove that the Castelnuovo-Mumford regularity…

Isolated hypersurface singularities come equipped with a Milnor lattice, a ${\mathbb Z}$-lattice of finite rank, and a set of $distinguished$ ${\mathbb Z}$-bases of this lattice. Usually these bases are constructed from $one$ morsification…

We give simple criteria to identify the exponential order of magnitude of the absolute value of the determinant for wide classes of random matrix models, not requiring the assumption of invariance. These include Gaussian matrices with…
