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…

We establish a one-to-one correspondence between the singularity categories of rational double points and the simply-laced Dynkin graphs in arbitrary characteristic. This correspondence is well-known in characteristic zero since the…

Families of jets through singularities of algebraic varieties are here studied in relation to the families of arcs originally studied by Nash. After proving a general result relating them, we look at normal locally complete intersection…

The paper surveys several results on the topology of the space of arcs of an algebraic variety and the Nash problem on the arc structure of singularities.

A celebrated theorem in Real Algebraic and Analytic Geometry (originally due to Bruhat-Cartan and Wallace and stated later in its current form by Milnor) is the (Nash) curve selection lemma. It states that each point in the closure of a…

We consider all genus 2 curves over Q given by an equation y^2 = f(x) with f a squarefree polynomial of degree 5 or 6, with integral coefficients of absolute value at most 3. For each of these roughly 200000 isomorphism classes of curves,…

In this paper we give a positive answer to a question of Nash concerning the arc space of a singularity, for the class of quasi-ordinary hypersurface singularities, extending to this case previous results and techniques of Shihoko Ishii.

We study rational double points over algebraically closed fields in arbitrary characteristics and completely classify the indecomposable objects in their singularity categories, which correspond to the vertices in their Auslander-Reiten…

The aim of this paper is to give a description of simply connected abelian locally Nash groups of dimension $2$. Along the way we prove that, for any $n\geq 2$, a locally Nash structure over $(\mathbb{R}^n,+)$ can be characterized via a…

In the present paper, we devise a version of topological $L^2$-Serre duality for singular complex spaces with arbitrary singularities. This duality is used to deduce various new $L^2$-vanishing theorems for the $\bar{\partial}$-equation on…

We show that there exists a strong connection between the generic formal neighborhood at a rational arc lying in the Nash set associated with a toric divisorial valuation on a toric variety and the formal neighborhood at the generic point…

Let S be a smooth algebraic surface satisfying the following property: H^i(\oc_S(C))=0 (i=1,2) for any irreducible and reduced curve C of S. The aim of this paper is to provide a characterization of special linear systems on S which are…

We classify the singularities of a surface ruled by conics: they are rational double points of type $A_n$ or $D_n$. This is proved by showing that they arise from a precise series of blow-ups of a suitable surface geometrically ruled by…

A theorem of Functorial Affinization of Nash's manifold is proven here giving necessary and sufficient conditions to lift a holomorphic arc to the smooth locus of the Nash manifold. In addition a theorem about valuations is proven.

We classify purely inseparable morphisms of degree $p$ between rational double points (RDPs) in characteristic $p > 0$. Using such morphisms, we refine a result of Artin that any RDP admits a finite smooth covering.

In this paper we present new proofs using real spectra of the finiteness theorem on Nash trivial simultaneous resolution and the finiteness theorem on Blow-Nash triviality for isolated real algebraic singularities. That is, we prove that a…

We prove that Nash mapping is bijective for any algebraic surface defined over an algebraically closed field of characteristic 0.

In this paper, we begin by constructing global linear maps on (n-2)-dimensional subspaces, derived from the local continuity of linear transformations among central sections of a convex body. Using these linear maps, we subsequently…

In this paper we introduce a maximal divisorial set in the arc space of a variety. The generalized Nash problem is reduced to a translation problem of the inclusion of two maximal divisorial sets. We study this problem and show a counter…

Let $X$ be an algebraic variety defined over a field of characteristic zero, and let $\xi \in \mathrm{\underline{Max}\; mult}(X)$ be a point in the closed subset of maximum multiplicity of $X$. We provide a criterion, given in terms of…
