The motivic zeta function of a smooth and proper $\mathbb{C}((t))$-variety $X$ with trivial canonical bundle is a rational function with coefficients in an appropriate Grothendieck ring of complex varieties, which measures how $X$…

The Grothendieck-Katz $p$-curvature conjecture is an analogue of the Hasse Principle for differential equations. It states that a set of arithmetic differential equations on a variety has finite monodromy if its $p$-curvature vanishes…

We prove a strong form of the motivic monodromy conjecture for abelian varieties, by showing that the order of the unique pole of the motivic zeta function is equal to the size of the maximal Jordan block of the corresponding monodromy…

mu-constant families of holomorphic function germs with isolated singularities are considered from a global perspective. First, a monodromy group from all families which contain a fixed singularity is studied. It consists of automorphisms…

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…

The Sendovs conjecture asserts that if all the zeros of a polynomial p(z) lie in the closed unit disk, then there must be a critical point of p(z) within unit distance of each zero. The conjecture has been proved to be true for many special…

For a generic (polynomial) one-parameter deformation of a complete intersection, there is defined its monodromy zeta-function. We provide explicit formulae for this zeta-function in terms of the corresponding Newton polyhedra in the case…

We study topological zeta functions of complex plane curve singularities using toric modifications and further developments. As applications of the research method, we prove that the topological zeta function is a topological invariant for…

We discuss the history of the monodromy theorem, starting from Weierstra\ss, and the concept of monodromy group. From this viewpoint we compare then the Weierstra\ss , the Legendre and other normal forms for elliptic curves, explaining…

We offer an equivariant version of the classical monodromy zeta function of a singularity as a series with coefficients from the Grothendieck ring of finite G-sets tensored by the field of rational numbers. Main two ingredients of the…

Let f be a hypersurface surface local singularity whose zero set has 1-dimensional singular locus. We develop an explicit procedure that provides the boundary of the Milnor fibre of f as an oriented plumbed 3-manifold. The method provides…

We prove several results on monodromies associated to Macdonald integrals, that were used in our previous work on the finite field analogue of a conjecture of Macdonald. We also give a new proof of our formula expressing recursively the…

By introducing motivic Milnor fibers at infinity of polynomial maps, we propose some methods for the study of nilpotent parts of monodromies at infinity. The numbers of Jordan blocks in the monodromy at infinity will be described by the…

We consider an $n\times n$ linear system of ODEs with an irregular singularity of Poincar\'e rank 1 at $z=\infty$, holomorphically depending on parameter $t$ within a polydisc in $\mathbb{C}^n$ centred at $t=0$. The eigenvalues of the…
