Let f be a map-germ of corank 1 from complex n-space to complex (n+1)-space, and, for k less than or equal to the multiplicity of f, let $D^k(f)$ be its k'th multiple-point scheme -- the closure of the set of ordered k-tuples of pairwise…

In this note we obtain the surjectivity of smooth maps into Euclidean spaces under mild conditions. As application we give a new proof of the Fundamental Theorem of Algebra. We also observe that any $C^1$-map from a compact manifold into…

In this paper we study the spaces of $q$-tuples of points in a Euclidean space, without $k$-wise coincidences (configuration-like spaces). A transitive group action by permuting these points is considered, and some new upper bounds on the…

We investigate {\it Gottlieb map}s, which are maps $f:E\to B$ that induce the maps between the Gottlieb groups $\pi_n (f)|_{G_n(E)}:G_n(E)\to G_n(B)$ for all $n$, from a rational homotopy theory point of view.We will define the obstruction…

Stable fold maps are fundamental tools in a generalization of the theory of Morse functions on smooth manifolds and its application to studies of geometric properties of smooth manifolds. Round fold maps were introduced as stable fold maps…

Let $M$ be a smooth connected orientable closed surface and $f_0\in C^\infty(M)$ a function having only critical points of the $A_\mu$-types, $\mu\in\mathbb N$. Let ${\mathcal F}={\mathcal F}(f_0)$ be the set of functions $f\in C^\infty(M)$…

A rational map $\phi: \mathbb{P}^1 \to \mathbb{P}^1$ along with an ordered list of fixed and critical points is called a totally marked rational map. The space of totally marked degree two rational maps, $Rat^{tm}_2$ can be parametrized by…

We give explicit formulas for the ranks of the third and fourth homotopy groups of all oriented closed simply-connected four manifolds in terms of their second Betti numbers. We also show that the rational homotopy type of these manifolds…

In this paper, we describe the homotopy type of the homotopy fixed point sets of $S^3$-actions on rational spheres and complex projective spaces, and provide some properties of $S^1$-actions on a general rational complex.

For the model two-complex $K$ of the group presentation $\mathcal{P}=\langle x,y\,|\,x^{k+1}yxy \rangle$, with $k\geq1$ odd, we describe representatives for all free and based homotopy classes of maps from $K$ into the real projective plane…

Locally stable maps $S^3\to\mathbb{R}^4$ are classified up to homotopy through locally stable maps. The equivalence class of a map $f$ is determined by three invariants: the isotopy class $\sigma(f)$ of its framed singularity link, the…

Let $X,Y$ be two irreducible subvarieties of the projective space $\mathbb{P}^n$, and $d\geq 1$ an integer number. The main result of this paper is an algorithm to construct {\bf explicitly}, in terms of $d$ and the ideals defining $X$ and…

\emph{Scalable spaces} are simply connected compact manifolds or finite complexes whose real cohomology algebra embeds in their algebra of (flat) differential forms. This is a rational homotopy invariant property and all scalable spaces are…

Spaces of holomorphic maps from the Riemann sphere to various complex manifolds (holomorphic curves ) have played an important role in several area of mathematics. In a seminal paper G. Segal investigated the homotopy type of holomorphic…
