In this note we provide a formula for the Tjurina number of a join of isolated hypersurface singularities in separated variables. From this we are able to provide a characterization of isolated hypersurface singularities whose difference…

We prove Clifford theoretic results on the representations of finite groups which only hold in characteristic $2$. Let $G$ be a finite group, let $N$ be a normal subgroup of $G$ and let $\varphi$ be an irreducible $2$-Brauer character of…

We classify isolated hypersurface singularities $f\in K[[x_1,..., x_n]]$, $K$ an algebraically closed field of characteristic $p>0$, which are simple w.r.t. right equivalence, that is, which have no moduli up to analytic coordinate change.…

Using the subdivision schemes theory, we develop a criterion to check if any natural number has at most one representation in the $n$-ary number system with a set of non-negative integer digits $A=\{a_1, a_2,\ldots, a_n\}$ that contains…

We describe a generalization of Milnor's formula for the Milnor number of an isolated hypersurface singularity to the case of a function $f$ whose restriction $f|(X,0)$ to an arbitrarily singular reduced complex analytic space $(X,0)…

The jump of the Milnor number of an isolated singularity $f_0$ is the minimal non-zero difference between the Milnor numbers of $f_0$ and one of its deformations $f_s$. We determinate the jump of quasihomogeneous singularities in the class…

The integral variation map and algebraic monodromy of isolated plane curve singularities are important homological invariants of the singularity which are still far from being completely understood. This work provides effective ways of…

In this paper we give a positive answer to a question of Dimca and Greuel about the quotient between the Milnor and the Tjurina numbers for any irreducible germ of plane curve singularity. This result is based on a closed formula for the…

A formula for the irregularity of a cyclic multiple plane associated to a branch curve that has arbitrary singularities and is transverse to the line at infinity is established. The irregularity is expressed as a sum of superabundances of…

We describe degenerations of projective plane curves to curves containing a fixed line $l$ as a component, and show that $H^1({\overline V}_{n,d,m}, {\Cal O} (r))=0, r \in{\Bbb Z}$, where $V_{n,d,m}\subset {\Bbb P}^N (N = n(n+3)/2)$ is the…

Suppose that $f$ defines a singular, complex affine hypersurface. If the critical locus of $f$ is one-dimensional at the origin, we obtain new general bounds on the ranks of the homology groups of the Milnor fiber, $F_{f, \mathbf 0}$, of…

We prove that given a holomorphic family of holomorphic functions with isolated singularities at zero and constant Milnor number, it is possible to obtain the gradient inequality with a uniform exponent.

We show that the generating series of Euler characteristics of Hilbert schemes of points on any algebraic surface with at worst $A_n$-type singularities is described by the theta series determined by integer valued positive definite…

Two Magma functions are given: one computes linear systems of plane curves with non-ordinary singularities and the other computes a scheme which parametrizes given degree plane curves with given singularities. These functions provide an…
