In this paper, we use Hilbert-Samuel multiplicity, Hilbert-Kunz multiplicity, and s-multiplicity to establish a sharp upper bound for the quotient of the generalized Milnor numbers and the Tjurina numbers for isolated hypersurface…
The well-known Mather-Yau theorem says that the isomorphism type of the local ring of an isolated complex hypersurface singularity is determined by its Tjurina algebra. It is also well known that this result is wrong as stated for power…
In this note we provide a formula for the Tjurina number of a join of isolated hypersurface singularities in separated variables. From this we are able to provide a characterization of isolated hypersurface singularities whose difference…
Mather and Yau showed that an isolated complex hypersurface singularity is completely determined by its moduli algebra. It is shown, for the simple elliptic singularities, how to construct continuous invariants from the moduli algebras and,…
In this paper we give a complete answer to a question posed by Dimca and Greuel about the quotient of the Milnor and Tjurina numbers of a plane curve singularity. We put this question into a general framework of the study of the difference…
We introduce a geometric realization of noncommutative singularity resolutions. To do this, we first present a new conjectural method of obtaining conventional resolutions using coordinate rings of matrix-valued functions. We verify this…
In this paper, we establish a Mather-Yau theorem for higher Nash blowup algebras, demonstrating that the isomorphism type of the local ring of any hypersurface singularity, defined over an arbitrary field, is fully determined by its higher…
The singularity category of a ring detects the homological singularity of the given ring, and appears in many different contexts. We describe two different dg enhancements of the singularity category, that is, the Vogel dg category and the…
We study an analytically irreducible algebroid germ (X, 0) of complex singularity by considering the filtrations of its analytic algebra, and their associated graded rings, induced by the divisorial valuations associated to the irreducible…
Isolated hypersurface singularities come equipped with distinguished bases of their Milnor lattices and with upper triangular integral matrices, which are called here distinguished matrices. These matrices form an orbit of a braid group and…
We describe a method for computing discriminants for a large class of families of isolated determinantal singularities -- more precisely, for subfamilies of ${\mathcal G}$-versal families. The approach intrinsically provides a decomposition…
For an isolated hypersurface singularity $f=0$, the Milnor number $\mu$ is greater than or equal to the Tjurina number $\tau$ (the dimension of the base of the semi-universal deformation), with equality if $f$ is quasi-homogeneous. K. Saito…
Let $R$ be a hypersurface in an equicharacteristic or unramified regular local ring. For a pair of modules $(M,N)$ over $R$ we study applications of rigidity of $\Tor^R(M,N)$, based on ideas by Huneke, Wiegand and Jorgensen. We then focus…
This is an expository version of our paper [arXiv:1902.07384]. Our aim is to present recent Macaulay2 algorithms for computation of mixed multiplicities of ideals in a Noetherian ring which is either local or a standard graded algebra over…
Using the minors in Hessian matrices, we introduce new graded algebras associated to a homogeneous polynomial. When the associated projective hypersurface has isolated singularities, these algebras are related to some new local algebras…
Let X be a smooth complex variety and Y be a closed subvariety of X, or more generally, a closed subscheme of X. We are interested in invariants attached to the singularities of the pair (X, Y). We discuss various methods to construct such…
Determinantal singularities are an important class of singularities, generalizing complete intersections, which recently have seen a large amount of interest. They are defined as preimage of $M^{t}_{m,n}$ the sets of matrices of rank less…
We describe a multivariable polynomial invariant for certain class of non isolated hypersurface singularities generalizing the characteristic polynomial on monodromy. The starting point is an extension of a theorem due to Le Dung Trang and…
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…
We study codimension two determinantal varieties with isolated singularities. These singularities admit a unique smoothing, thus we can define their Milnor number as the middle Betti number of their generic fiber. For surfaces in C^4, we…
