In this survey, we review part of the theory of superisolated surface singularities (SIS) and its applications including some new and recent developments. The class of SIS singularities is, in some sense, the simplest class of germs of…
The 4-dimensional abstract Kummer variety K^4 with 16 nodes leads to the K3 surface by resolving the 16 singularities. Here we present a simplicial realization of this minimal resolution. Starting with a minimal 16-vertex triangulation of…
This article is concerned with the geometry of germs of real analytic surfaces in $(\mathbb{C}^2,0)$ having an isolated Cauchy-Riemann (CR) singularity at the origin. These are perturbations of {\it Bishop quadrics}. There are two kinds of…
We study singularities obtained by the contraction of the maximal divisor in compact (non kaehlerian) surfaces which contain global spherical shells. These singularities are of genus 1 or 2, may be Q-Gorenstein, numerically Gorenstein or…
We study fundamental groups of projective varieties with normal crossing singularities and of germs of complex singularities. We prove that for every finitely-presented group G there is a complex projective surface S with simple normal…
We prove a formula for the polar degree of projective hypersurfaces in terms of the Milnor data of the singularities, extending to 1-dimensional singularities the Dimca-Papadima result for isolated singularities. We discuss the…
We study the topological triviality of families of singular surfaces in ${\mathbb C}^3$ parametrized by $\mathcal A$-finitely determined map germs. We prove that the constancy of the Milnor number of the double point locus characterizes the…
We proof here the existence of a topological thick and thin decomposition of any closed definable thick isolated singularity germ in the spirit of the recently discovered metric thick and thin decomposition of complex normal surface…
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…
We recover the Newton diagram (modulo a natural ambiguity) from the link for any surface hypersurface singularity with non-degenerate Newton principal part whose link is a rational homology sphere. As a corollary, we show that the link…
We study singularity of effective $\mathbb{Q}$-divisors on products of projective spaces of multidegree $(1,1...,1).$ This generalizes works of Bath, Musta{\c{t}}{\u{a}} and Walther on singularity of square-free polynomials. We also give a…
In this paper, we establish homological mirror symmetry where the A-model is a finite quotient of the Milnor fibre of an invertible curve singularity, proving a conjecture of Lekili and Ueda from arXiv:1806.04345 in this dimension. Our…
The topology of the orbit space, $Y$, for the action of the complex conjugation on a complex surface, $X$, defined over reals, is studied. I give a criterion for blow-up stable triviality of $Y$ (which implies vanishing of its…
We give a constructive proof of the Hodge conjecture for complex $K3$ surfaces that does not rely on Torelli-type results. Starting with an arbitrary rational $(1,1)$-class $\alpha\in H^{1,1}(X,\mathbb{Q})$, we algorithmically build a…
Consider an area minimizing current modulo $p$ of dimension $m$ in a smooth Riemannian manifold of dimension $m+1$. We prove that its interior singular set is, up to a relatively closed set of dimension at most $m-2$, a $C^{1,\alpha}$…
We give a complete classification of complex Q-homology projective planes with isolated rational double point singularities and numerically trivial canonical bundle. There are 31 types, and each has one-dimensional moduli. In fact, all…
In this series of three papers, we introduce and study cyclotomic pairs and smooth profinite groups. They are a geometric axiomatisation of Kummer theory for fields, with coefficients $p$-primary roots of unity, for a prime $p$. These…
We provide a positive answer to Zariski's conjecture for families of singular surfaces in $\mathbb C^3,$ under the condition that the family has a smooth normalisation. As a corollary of the result, we obtain a surprising characterization…
By the famous ADE classification rational double points are simple. Rational triple points are also simple. We conjecture that the simple normal surface singularities are exactly those rational singularities, whose resolution graph can be…
In this paper we use the results from the first part to compute the vanishing topology for matrix singularities based on certain spaces of matrices. We place the variety of singular matrices in a geometric configuration of free divisors…
