This is a report on some recent work by Gaffney, Massey, and the author, characterizing the conditions A_f and W_f for a family of ICIS germs equipped with a function. First we introduce the work informally. Then we review the formal…
In analogy with the holomorphic case, we compare the topology of Milnor fibrations associated to a meromorphic germ f/g : the local Milnor fibrations given on Milnor tubes over punctured discs around the critical values of f/g, and the…
In this note we give a simple proof of the following relative analog of the well known Milnor-Palamodov theorem: the Bruce-Roberts number of a function relative to an isolated hypersurface singularity is equal to its topological Milnor…
We define local fibration structures for real map germs with strictly positive dimensional discriminant: a local fibration structure over the complement of the discriminant, and a complete local fibration structure which includes the…
The singularity space consists of all germs $(X,x)$, with $X$ a Noetherian scheme and $x$ a point, where we identify two such germs if they become the same after an analytic extension of scalars. This is a Polish space for the metric given…
In the paper, the occurrence of zeros and ones in the binary expansion of the primes is studied. In particular the statement in the title is established. The proof is unconditional.
We remark that the study of a fiber-integral of the type F (s) := f =s ($\omega$/df) $\land$ ($\omega$/df) either in the local case where $\rho$ $\not\equiv$ 1 around 0 is C $\infty$ and compactly supported near the origin which is a…
We prove fibration theorems \`a la Milnor for differentiable real maps with non isolated critical values. We study the situation for maps with linear discriminant, and prove that the concept of d-regularity is the key point for the…
We study Siegel's center problem on the linearization of germs of diffeomorphisms in one variable. In addition of the classical problems of formal and analytic linearization, we give sufficient conditions for the linearization to belong to…
The Milnor number, \mu(X,0), and the singularity genus, p_g(X,0), are fundamental invariants of isolated hypersurface singularities (more generally, of local complete intersections). The long standing Durfee conjecture (and its…
When f : R power n to R power p, is a surjective real analytic map with isolated critical value, we prove that the (m)-regularity condition (in a sense we define) ensures that f ||f|| is a fibration on small spheres, f induces a fibration…
Homological index of a holomorphic 1-form on a complex analytic variety with an isolated singular point is an analogue of the usual index of a 1-form on a non-singular manifold. One can say that it corresponds to the top Chern number of a…
We introduce a certain index of a collection of germs of 1-forms on a germ of a singular variety which is a generalization of the local Euler obstruction corresponding to Chern numbers different from the top one.
If a complex analytic function, $f$, has a stratified isolated critical point, then it is known that the cohomology of the Milnor fibre of $f$ has a direct sum decomposition in terms of the normal Morse data to the strata. We use microlocal…
The purpose of this paper is to understand generic behavior of constraint functions in optimization problems relying on singularity theory of smooth mappings. To this end, we will focus on the subgroup $\mathcal{K}[G]$ of the Mather's group…
Every set of natural numbers determines a generating function convergent for $q \in (-1,1)$ whose behavior as $q \rightarrow 1^-$ determines a germ. These germs admit a natural partial ordering that can be used to compare sizes of sets of…
We explicitly evaluate a special type of multiple Dirichlet $L$-values at positive integers in two different ways: One approach involves using symmetric functions, while the other involves using a generating function of the values. Equating…
A notion of the radial index of an isolated singular point of a 1-form on a singular (real or complex) variety is discussed. For the differential of a function it is related to the Euler characteristic of the Milnor fibre of the function. A…
A Gilbert tessellation arises by letting linear segments (cracks) in the plane unfold in time with constant speed, starting from a homogeneous Poisson point process of germs in randomly chosen directions. Whenever a growing edge hits an…
The Landau-Selberg-Delange method provides an asymptotic formula for the partial sums of a multiplicative function whose average value on primes is a fixed complex number $v$. The shape of this asymptotic implies that $f$ can get very small…
