Fibered multilinks are a generalization of classical fibered knots and open books that arise in the study of surface singularities and Milnor fibrations. We prove that if the canonical contact structure on the link of a surface singularity…
We study the structure of generalized Baumslag-Solitar groups from the point of view of their (usually non-unique) splittings as fundamental groups of graphs of infinite cyclic groups. We find and characterize certain decompositions of…
We give formulas for the degrees of the spaces of foliations in P2 with a dicritical singularity of prescribed order. Blowing up such singularity induces, generically, a foliation with all but finitely many leaves transversal to the…
For a polynomial $f$ in two complex variables, we prove that the multi-link at infinity of the 0-fiber $f^{-1}(0)$ is a fibred multi-link if and only if all the values different from 0 are regular at infinity.
In this paper we study a special class of fibrations on Delsarte surfaces. We call these fibrations Delsarte fibrations. We show that after a specific cyclic base change the fibration is the pull back of a fibration with three singular…
The image of a finitely determined holomorphic germ $\Phi$ from $\mathbb{C}^2$ to $\mathbb{C}^3$ defines a hypersurface singularity $(X,0)$, which is in general non-isolated. We show that the diffeomorphism type of the boundary of the…
For a singular variety X, an essential step to determine its smoothability and study its deformations is the understanding of the tangent sheaf and of the sheaf T^1_X:=ext^1(Omega_X,O_X). A variety is semi-smooth if its singularities are…
A holomorphic foliation is defined as an integrable coherent subsheaf of the tangent sheaf. The structure of the leaves around a singularity is read off from the structure of the stalks. This was done by Baum when the dimension of the…
We investigate the segregation of a dense binary mixture of granular particles that only differ in their restitution coefficient. The mixture is vertically vibrated in the presence of gravity. We find a partial segregation of the species,…
In this article we study the topology of a family of real analytic germs $F \colon (\mathbb{C}^3,0) \to (\mathbb{C},0)$ with isolated critical point at 0, given by $F(x,y,z)=f(x,y)\bar{g(x,y)}+z^r$, where $f$ and $g$ are holomorphic, $r \in…
To study a deformation of a singularity taking into consideration their differential geometric properties, a form representing the deformation using only diffeomorphisms on the source space and isometries of the target space plays a crucial…
We develop a real-analytic framework, called perplex analysis, in which the complex, split-complex, and dual numbers arise as members of a single four-parameter family of two-dimensional commutative real algebras. Within this unified…
This paper is concerned with the local bifurcation analysis around typical singularities of piecewise smooth planar dynamical systems. Three-parameter families of a class of non$-$smooth vector fields are studied and the tridimensional…
In this paper we investigate how germs of real functions can change under deformation. In particular we look at deformations of germs of isolated singularities from R_n to R_k (n >= k) and the relation with there natural stratification in…
We study one-parameter analytic integrable deformations of the germ of $2\times(n-2)$-type complex saddle singularity given by $d(xy)=0$ at the origin $0 \in \mathbb C^2\times \mathbb C^{n-2}$. Such a deformation writes ${\omega}^t=d(xy) +…
This paper presents two new constructions related to singular solutions of polynomial systems. The first is a new deflation method for an isolated singular root. This construction uses a single linear differential form defined from the…
This is an addendum to the paper ``Deformation of $L_\infty$-Algebras'' of the same author. We explain in which way the deformation theory of $L_\infty$-algebras extends the deformation theory of singularities. We show that the construction…
We introduce the jet schemes of a holomorphic foliation, and thereby prove an alternate characterisation of simple singularities of codimension-$1$ foliations, independent of any normal form. This leads to an equivalent condition for the…
Let $f : X\to \Delta$ be a $1$-parameter family of $2$-dimensional isolated hypersurface singularities. In this paper, we show that if the Milnor number is constant, then any semistable model, obtained from $f$ after a sufficiently large…
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…
