We consider a mixed function of type $H(\mathbf z,\bar {\mathbf z})=f(\mathbf z)\bar g(\mathbf z)$ where $f$ and $g$ are convenient holomorphic functions which have isolated critical points at the origin and we assume that the intersection…

We initiate a systematic investigation of F-theory on elliptic fibrations with singularities which cannot be resolved without breaking the Calabi-Yau condition, corresponding to $\mathbb Q$-factorial terminal singularities. It is the…

We prove that every map-germ ${f \bar g}: (\C^n,\0) {\to}(\C,0)$ with an isolated critical value at 0 has the Thom $a_{f \bar g}$-property. This extends Hironaka's theorem for holomorphic mappings to the case of map-germs $f \bar g$ and it…

We give the first examples of groups which admit a tame combing with linear radial tameness function with respect to any choice of finite presentation, but which are not minimally almost convex on a standard generating set. Namely, we…

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…

For a germ of a variety $\mathcal{V}, 0 \subset \mathbb C^N, 0$, a singularity $\mathcal{V}_0$ of type $\mathcal{V}$, is given by a germ $f_0 : \mathbb C^n, 0 \to \mathbb C^N, 0$ which is transverse to $\mathcal{V}$ in an appropriate sense…

For each complex central essential hyperplane arrangement $\mathcal{A}$, let $F_{\mathcal{A}}$ denote its Milnor fiber. We use Tevelev's theory of tropical compactifications to study invariants related to the mixed Hodge structure on the…

We present new results on equisingularity and equinormalizability of families with isolated non-normal singularities (INNS) of arbitrary dimension. We define a $\delta$-invariant and a $\mu$-invariant for an INNS and prove necessary and…

Consider a singular holomorphic map-germ $f: (X,\underline{0}) \to (\mathbb C,0)$ where $X$ is a singular complex analytic variety in $\mathbb C^N$, and another holomorphic map-germ $g: (X,\underline{0}) \to (\mathbb C,0)$ which is…

Homological algebra of modules over posets is developed, as closely parallel as possible to that of finitely generated modules over noetherian commutative rings, in the direction of finite presentations and resolutions. Centrally at issue…

This article and its successor concern the topology of real isolated hypersurface singularities. We prove that after attaching a certain number of handles the real Milnor fibres become contractible, with each handle corresponding to a…

We continue our study of ends of non-compact manifolds, with a focus on the inward tameness condition. For manifolds with compact boundary, inward tameness, has significant implications. For example, such manifolds have stable homology at…

We are going to use the Euler's vector fields in order to show that for real quasi-homogeneous singularities with isolated critical value, the Milnor's fibration in a "thin" hollowed tube involving the zero level and the fibration in the…

We give the first (as far as we know) complete description of the boundary of the Milnor fiber for some non-isolated singular germs of surfaces in ${\bf C}^3$. We study irreducible (i.e. $gcd (m,k,l) = 1$) non-isolated (i.e. $1 \leq k < l$)…

The problem we are considering came up in connection with the classification of singularities in positive characteristic. Then it is important that certain invariants like the determinacy can be bounded simultaneously in families of formal…

We give a description of the Milnor fiber and the monodromy of a singularity of the form f+zg = 0 where f and g define plane curves and have no common components. The description depends only on the topological type of the two plane curve…

We use topology of configuration spaces to give a characterization of Neuwirth--Stallings pairs $(S^5, K)$ with $\dim K = 2$. As a consequence, we construct polynomial map germs $(\mathbb{R}^{6},0)\to (\mathbb{R}^{3},0)$ with an isolated…

We study singularities f in K[[x_1,...,x_n]] over an algebraically closed field K of arbitrary characteristic with respect to right respectively contact equivalence, and we establish that the finiteness of the Milnor respectively the…

For a riemannian foliation $\mathcal{F}$ on a closed manifold $M$, it is known that $\mathcal{F}$ is taut (i.e. the leaves are minimal submanifolds) if and only if the (tautness) class defined by the mean curvature form $\kappa_\mu$…

For analytic map germs $f: (\mathbb{R}^n, 0)\to (\mathbb{R}, 0)$ having an isolated critical value in the origin with $\dim V(f)>0$ and satisfying the transversality property of D.B. Massey we show that for $c>0$ a large enough constant,…
