For isolated complex hypersurface singularities with real defining equation we show the existence of a monodromy vector field such that complex conjugation intertwines the local monodromy diffeomorphism with its inverse. In particular, it…

In the present paper MAPLE subroutines computing Milnor and Tyurina numbers of an isolated algebraic hypersurface singularity are presented and described in detail. They represents examples, and perhaps the first ones, of a MAPLE…

We derive a formula for the Milnor class of scheme-theoretic global complete intersections (with arbitrary singularities) in a smooth variety in terms of the Segre class of its singular scheme. In codimension one the formula recovers a…

The generalization of the Morse theory presented by Goresky and MacPherson is a landmark that divided completely the topological and geo\-me\-tri\-cal study of singular spaces. Let \{$X_t\}_t$ be a suitable family of germs at $0$ of…

The Brasselet number of a function $f$ with nonisolated singularities describes numerically the topological information of its generalized Milnor fibre. In this work, using the Brasselet number, we present several formulas for germs $f:(X,…

We consider the operator $F(u) = u' + f(t,u(t))$ acting on periodic real valued functions. Generically, critical points of $F$ are infinite dimensional Morin-like singularities and we provide operational characterizations of the…

We compute the signature of the Milnor fiber of certain type of non-isolated complex surface singularities, namely, images of finitely determined holomorphic germs. An explicit formula is given in algebraic terms. As a corollary we show…

The Milnor formula $\mu=2\delta-r+1$ relates the Milnor number $\mu$, the double point number $\delta$ and the number $r$ of branches of a plane curve singularity. It holds over the fields of characteristic zero. Melle and Wall based on a…

Let M be a smooth connected compact surface, P be either the real line R^1 or the circle S^1. For a subset X of M denote by D(M,X) the group of diffeomorphisms of M fixed on X. In this note we consider a special class F of smooth maps…

The image of a finitely determined holomorphic germ $\Phi$ from $\mathbb{C}^2$ to $\mathbb{C}^3$ defines a hypersurface singularity $(X,0)$, which is in general non-isolated. We show that the diffeomorphism type of the boundary of the…

We deal with the following closely related problems: (i) For a germ of a reduced plane analytic curve, what is the minimal degree of an algebraic curve with a singular point analytically equivalent (isomorphic) to the given one? (ii) For a…

By the Mather-Yau theorem, a complex hypersurface germ $V$ with isolated singularity is completely determined by its moduli algebra $A(V)$. The proof of the theorem does not provide an explicit procedure for recovering $V$ from $A(V)$, and…

Let $(f, g)$ be a pair of complex analytic functions on a singular analytic space $X$. We give ``the correct'' definition of the relative polar curve of $(f, g)$, and we give a very formal generalization of L\^e's attaching result, which…

The basic examples of functions defining non-isolated hypersurface singularities are the A(d) singularities and the D(q,p) singularities. The A(d) singularities, up to analytic equivalence, are the product of a Morse function and the zero…

Denote by $M_n$ the set of $n\times n$ complex matrices. Let $f: M_n \rightarrow [0,\infty)$ be a continuous map such that $f(\mu UAU^*)= f(A)$ for any complex unit $\mu$, $A \in M_n$ and unitary $U \in M_n$, $f(X)=0$ if and only if $X=0$…

Let $F$ be a one-dimensional holomorphic foliation on $\mathbb{P}^n$ such that $W\subset Sing(F)$, where $W$ is a smooth complete intersection variety. We determine and compute the variation of the Milnor number $ \mu(F, W)$ under blowups,…

Given a hypersurface singularity $(X,0) \subset (\mathbb{C}^{n+1},0)$ defined by a holomorphic function $f:(\mathbb{C}^{n+1},0) \to (\mathbb{C},0)$, we introduce an alternating version of Teissier's Jacobian Newton polygon, associated with…

We study the topology of the boundaries of the Milnor fibers of real analytics map-germs $f: (\mathbb{R}^M,0) \to (\mathbb{R}^K,0)$ and $f_{I}:=\Pi_{I}\circ f : (\mathbb{R}^M,0) \to (\mathbb{R}^I,0)$ that admit Milnor's tube fibrations,…

Given a Morse function f on a closed manifold M with distinct critical values, and given a field F, there is a canonical complex, called the Morse-Barannikov complex, which is equivalent to any Morse complex associated with f and whose form…

We study the boundary of the Milnor fibre of real analytic singularities $f: (\bR^m,0) \to (\bR^k,0)$, $m\geq k$, with an isolated critical value and the Thom $a_f$-property. We define the vanishing zone for $f$ and we give necessary and…
