According to the Kouchnirenko formula, the Milnor number of a generic isolated singularity with given Newton polyhedron is equal to the alternating sum of certain volumes associated to the Newton polyhedron. In this paper we obtain a…

We consider different notions of non-degeneracy, as introduced by Kouchnirenko (NND), Wall (INND) and Beelen-Pellikaan (WNND) for plane curve singularities $\{f(x,y) = 0\}$ and introduce the new notion of weighted homogeneous Newton…

We prove that for two germs of analytic mappings $f,g\colon (\mathbb{C}^n,0) \rightarrow (\mathbb{C}^p,0)$ with the same Newton polyhedra which are (Khovanskii) non-degenerate and their zero sets are complete intersections with isolated…

For an isolated hypersurface singularity $f=0$, the Milnor number $\mu$ is greater than or equal to the Tjurina number $\tau$ (the dimension of the base of the semi-universal deformation), with equality if $f$ is quasi-homogeneous. K. Saito…

In his groundbreaking work on classification of singularities with regard to right and stable equivalence of germs, Arnold has listed normal forms for all isolated hypersurface singularities over the complex numbers with either modality…

Let $f$ be an isolated singularity at the origin of $\mathbb{C}^n$. One of many invariants that can be associated with $f$ is its {\L}ojasiewicz exponent $\mathcal{L}_0 (f)$, which measures, to some extent, the topology of $f$. We give, for…

Consider a polynomial $f$ with a convenient Newton polytope $P$ and generic complex coefficients. By the global version of the Kouchnirenko formula, the hypersurface $\{f = 0\} \subset \mathbb{C}^n$ has the homotopy type of a bouquet of…

We show that every $\mu$-constant family of isolated hypersurface singularities satisfying a nondegeneracy condition in the sense of Kouchnirenko, is topologically trivial, also is equimultiple.

The nonlinear eigen-problem $ Ax+F(x)=\lambda x$ is studied where $A$ is an $n\times n$ irreducible Stieltjes matrix. Under certain conditions, this problem has a unique positive solution. We show that, starting from a multiple of the…

We give an algorithm to compute the L\^e numbers of (the germ of) a Newton non-degenerate complex analytic function $f\colon(\mathbb{C}^n,0) \rightarrow (\mathbb{C},0)$ in terms of certain invariants attached to the Newton diagram of the…

Let $f$ be a (possibly Newton degenerate) weighted homogeneous polynomial defining an isolated surface singularity at the origin of $\mathbb{C}^3$, and let $\{f_s\}$ be a generic deformation of its coefficients such that $f_s$ is Newton…

Our recent extension of Arnold's classification includes all singularities of corank up to two equivalent to a germ with a non-degenerate Newton boundary, thus broadening the classification's scope significantly by a class which is…

Let $A$ be a noetherian Koszul Artin-Schelter regular algebra, and let $f\in A_2$ be a central regular element of $A$. The quotient algebra $A/(f)$ is usually called a (noncommutative) quadric hypersurface. In this paper, we use the…

In this paper we are concerned with positive singular solutions of the following nonlocal Hartree equation $$-\Delta u\!=\Big( \int_{\mathbb{R}^N\setminus \Gamma}\frac{F(u(y))}{|x-y|^\mu}dy \Big)f (u(x)), \quad x\in…

In \cite[Section 5, p.32]{Arnold-1998}, Arnold writes: "Classification of singularities of curves can be interpreted in dual terms as a description of 'co-artin' subalgebras of finite co-dimension in the algebra of formal series in a single…

We discuss a problem of Arnold, whether every function is stably equivalent to one which is non-degenerate for its Newton diagram. We argue that the answer is negative. We describe a method to make functions non-degenerate after…

In this paper, we use Hilbert-Samuel multiplicity, Hilbert-Kunz multiplicity, and s-multiplicity to establish a sharp upper bound for the quotient of the generalized Milnor numbers and the Tjurina numbers for isolated hypersurface…

The Milnor number of an isolated hypersurface singularity, defined as the codimension $\mu(f)$ of the ideal generated by the partial derivatives of a power series $f$ whose zeros represent locally the hypersurface, is an important…

We describe a relation between Arnold's strange duality and a polar duality between the Newton polytopes which is mostly due to M.~Kobayashi. We show that this relation continues to hold for the extension of Arnold's strange duality found…

The Newton polytope $P_f$ of a polynomial $f$ is well known to have a strong impact on its zeros, as in the Kouchnirenko-Bernstein theorem on the number of simultaneous zeros of $m$ polynomials with given Newton polytopes. In this article,…
