We describe germs of mappings $(\mathbb{C}^2,0) \to (\mathbb{C}^2,0)$ ramified along a germ of irreducible curve whose image is of the form $x^p=y^q$.

Let (C,0) be a reduced curve germ in a normal surface singularity (X,0). The main goal is to recover the delta invariant of the abstract curve (C,0) from the topology of the embedding. We give explicit formulae whenever (C,0) is minimal…

Let $(X,0)$ be an ICIS of dimension 2 and let $f:(X,0)\to (\C^2,0)$ be a map germ with an isolated instability. We look at the invariants that appear when $X_s$ is a smoothing of $(X,0)$ and $f_s:X_s\to B_\epsilon$ is a stabilization of…

Let X be a compact (resp. compact and nonsingular) real algebraic variety and let Y be a homogeneous space for some linear real algebraic group. We prove that a continuous (resp. C^infinity) map f:X-->Y can be approximated by regular maps…

We consider a corank $1$, finitely determined, quasi-homogeneous map germ $f$ from $(\mathbb{C}^2,0)$ to $(\mathbb{C}^3,0)$. We describe the embedded topological type of a generic hyperplane section of $f(\mathbb{C}^2)$, denoted by…

Let $(S, 0) \subset (\mathbb{C}^{d+1},0)$ be an irreducible germ of hypersurface. The germ $(S,0)$ is quasi-ordinary if $(S,0)$ has a finite projection to $(\mathbb{C}^d,0)$ which is unramified outside the coordinate hyperplanes. This…

In this work we investigate the topological information captured by the Euler obstruction of a map, $f:(X,0)\to (\mathbb{C}^{2},0)$, with $(X,0)$ a germ of a complex $d$-equidimensional singular space, with $d > 2$, and its relation with…

This paper is devoted to the study of the LNE property in complex analytic hypersurface parametrized germs, that is, the sets that are images of finite analytic map germs from $(\mathbb{C}^n,0)$ to $(\mathbb{C}^{n+1},0)$. We prove that if…

The splice quotients are an interesting class of normal surface singularities with rational homology sphere links, defined by W. Neumann and J. Wahl. If Gamma is a tree of rational curves that satisfies certain combinatorial conditions,…

We study corank one $A$-finite germs $f:(\mathbb{R}^n,0)\rightarrow (\mathbb{R}^{n+1},0)$ and their complexifications. More precisely, we study when these germs provide good real pictures of the complex germs, i.e., when there is a real…

For given polynomial map $F:\C^2\to\C^2$ with nonvanishing jacobian we associate a variety whose homology or intersection homology describes the geometry of singularities at infinity of this map.

If (X,0) is a complex surface germ with a non-isolated singular locus we describe its singular link L of (X,0) and we show that the topology of L determines the topology of the normalization.

Given a rank-two sub-Riemannian structure $(M,\Delta)$ and a point $x_0\in M$, a singular curve is a critical point of the endpoint map $F:\gamma\mapsto\gamma(1)$ defined on the space of horizontal curves starting at $x_0$. The typical…

Special generic maps are smooth maps at each singular point of which we can represent as $(x_1, \cdots, x_m) \mapsto (x_1,\cdots,x_{n-1},\sum_{k=n}^{m}{x_k}^2)$ for suitable coordinates. Morse functions with exactly two singular points on…

Let $M$ be a smooth connected orientable closed surface and $f_0\in C^\infty(M)$ a function having only critical points of the $A_\mu$-types, $\mu\in\mathbb N$. Let ${\mathcal F}={\mathcal F}(f_0)$ be the set of functions $f\in C^\infty(M)$…

We show that the knot type of the link of a real analytic map germ with isolated singularity $f\colon(\mathbb{R}^2,0)\to(\mathbb{R}^4,0)$ is a complete invariant for $C^0$-$\mathscr A$-equivalence. Moreover, we also prove that isolated…

In this work, we study families of singular surfaces in $\mathbb{C}^3$ parametrized by $\mathcal{A}$-finitely determined map germs. We consider the topological triviality and Whitney equisingularity of an unfolding $F$ of a finitely…

For a map germ $G$ with target $(\mathbb C^{p}, 0)$ or $(\mathbb R^{p}, 0)$ with $p\ge 2$, we address two phenomena which do not occur when $p=1$: the image of $G$ may be not well-defined as a set germ, and a local fibration near the origin…

Let $X$ be a closed smooth manifold, $G$ be a simple connected compact real Lie group, $M (G)$ be the group of all smooth maps from $X$ to $G$, and $M_0 (G)$ be its connected component for the $\mathcal C^\infty$-compact open topology. It…

Let $X$ be a topological space and $f:X\to X$ a bijection. Let ${\mathcal C}(X,f)$ be a set of integers such that an integer $n$ is an element of ${\mathcal C}(X,f)$ if and only if the bijection $f^n:X\to X$ is continuous. A subset $S$ of…
