We discuss different generalizations of the classical notion of the index of a singular point of a vector field to the case of vector fields or 1-forms on singular varieties, describe relations between them and formulae for their…

We define an index of a collection of 1-forms on a complex isolated complete intersection singularity corresponding to a Chern number and, in the case when the 1-forms are complex analytic, express it as the dimension of a certain algebra.

Indices of vector fields on (complex analytic) singular varieties have been considered by various authors from several different viewpoints. All these indices coincide with the classical local index of Poincar\'e-Hopf when the ambient…

Equivariant versions of the radial index and of the GSV-index of a vector field or a 1-form on a singular variety with an action of a finite group are defined. They have values in the Burnside ring of the group. Poincar\'e-Hopf type…

We classify, up to a natural equivalence relation, vector fields of the plane which belong to the kernel of a 1--form. This form can be closed, in which case the vector fields are integrable, or not, in which case the differential of the…

We define generalized vector fields, and contraction and Lie derivatives with respect to them. Generalized commutators are also defined.

Theorems on the existence of vector fields with given sets of Indexes of isolated Singular points are proved for the cases of closed manifolds, pairs of manifolds, manifolds with boundary, and gradient fields. It is proved that, on a…

We consider manifolds with isolated singularities, i.e., topological spaces which are manifolds (say, $C^\infty$--) outside discrete subsets (sets of singular points). For (germs of) manifolds with, so called, cone--like singularities, a…

If two G-manifolds are G-cobordant then characteristic numbers corresponding to the fixed point sets (submanifolds) of subgroups of G and to normal bundles to these sets coincide. We construct two analogues of these characteristic numbers…

A classification of the global structure of monic and centered one-variable complex polynomial vector fields is presented.

There are some generalizations of the classical Eisenbud-Levine-Khimshashvili formula for the index of a singular point of an analytic vector field on $R^n$ for vector fields on singular varieties. We offer an alternative approach based on…

We construct the space of vector fields on a generic quantum group. Its elements are products of elements of the quantum group itself with left invariant vector fields. We study the duality between vector fields and 1-forms and generalize…

Torse-forming vector fields are generalizations of some important vector fields. In this paper, we present some techniques to transform a proper torse-forming vector field into its special cases. Concrete examples are given.

Vector fields with components which are generalized zero-forms are constructed. Inner products with generalized forms, Lie derivatives and Lie brackets are computed. The results are shown to generalize previously reported results for…

In many relevant cases -- e.g., in hamiltonian dynamics -- a given vector field can be characterized by means of a variational principle based on a one-form. We discuss how a vector field on a manifold can also be characterized in a similar…

In this article, we study the generalized Poincare problem from the opposite perspective, by establishing lower bounds on the degree of the vector field in terms of invariants of the variety.

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…

In this expository article, we study and discuss invariants of vector fields and holomorphic foliations that intertwine the theories of complex analytic singular varieties and singular holomorphic foliations on complex manifolds: two…

Indices of singular points of a vector field or of a 1-form on a smooth manifold are closely related with the Euler characteristic through the classical Poincar\'e--Hopf theorem. Generalized Euler characteristics (additive topological…

The aim of this paper is to investigate the point spectra of vector fields. We will define the point spectrum of a vector field and study some of its basic properties. In particular, we will prove that point spectra are well-behaved under…
