Let W be a finite irreducible Coxeter group and let X_W be the classifying space for G_W, the associated Artin group. If A is a commutative unitary ring, we consider the two local systems L_q and L_q' over X_W, respectively over the modules…

A central question in arrangement theory is to determine whether the characteristic polynomial $\Delta_q$ of the algebraic monodromy acting on the homology group $H_q(F(\mathcal{A}),\mathbb{C})$ of the Milnor fiber of a complex hyperplane…

We prove similar theorems concerning the structure of bundles involving complements of fiber-type hyperplane arrangements and orbit configuration spaces. These results facilitate analysis of the fundamental groups of these spaces, which may…

We construct a spectral sequence converging to the cohomology with compact support of the m-th contact locus of a complex polynomial. The first page is explicitly described in terms of a log resolution and coincides with the first page of…

For a cubic number field $L$, we consider the $\mathbb{Z}$-order in $L$ of the form $\mathbb{Z}[\alpha]$, where $\alpha$ is a root of a polynomial of the form $x^3-ax+b$ and $a,b\in\mathbb{Z}$ are integers such that $v_p(a)\leq 2$ or…

Given a fibration over the circle, we relate the eigenspace decomposition of the algebraic monodromy, the homological finiteness properties of the fiber, and the formality properties of the total space. In the process, we prove a more…

A real Milnor manifold is the non-singular hypersurface of degree $(1,1)$ in the product of two real projective spaces. These manifolds were introduced by Milnor to give generators for the unoriented cobordism algebra, and they admit free…

Given a family $X$ of complex varieties degenerating over a punctured disc, one is interested in computing related invariants called the motivic nearby fiber and the refined limit mixed Hodge numbers, both of which contain information about…

We give a topological model for a polynomial map from $\C^n$ to $\C$ in the neighborhood of a fiber with isolated singularities. This is motivated out of the ``unfolding of links'' described earlier by the first author and Lee Rudolph. The…

In the author's paper ''Poincar\'{e} series and monodromy of a two-dimensional quasihomogeneous hypersurface singularity'' a relation is proved between the Poincar\'{e} series of the coordinate algebra of a two-dimensional quasihomogeneous…

We prove that the algebra of endomorphisms of a Weyl module of critical level is isomorphic to the algebra of functions on the space of monodromy-free opers on the disc with regular singularity and residue determined by the highest weight…

We compute the combinatorial Aomoto-Betti numbers $\beta_p(\mathcal{A})$ of a complex reflection arrangement. When $\mathcal{A}$ has rank at least $3$, we find that $\beta_p(\mathcal{A})\le 2$, for all primes $p$. Moreover,…

We prove that the monodromy diffeomorphism of a complex 2-dimensional isolated hypersurface singularity of weighted-homogeneous type has infinite order in the smooth mapping class group of the Milnor fiber, provided the singularity is not a…

Given a bounded constructible complex of sheaves $\mathcal{F}$ on a complex Abelian variety, we prove an equality relating the cohomology jump loci of $\mathcal{F}$ and its singular support. As an application, we identify two subsets 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…

This note is mostly an expository survey, centered on the topology of complements of hyperplane arrangements, their Milnor fibrations, and their boundary structures. An important tool in this study is provided by the degree 1 resonance and…

We survey interactions between the topology and the combinatorics of complex hyperplane arrangements. Without claiming to be exhaustive, we examine in this setting combinatorial aspects of fundamental groups, associated graded Lie algebras,…

We discuss and prove a number of cohomological results for Milnor fibers, real links, and complex links of local complete intersections with singularities of arbitrary dimension.

Let $\A$ be an arrangement of affine lines in $\C^2,$ with complement $\M(\A).$ The (co)homo-logy of $\M(\A)$ with twisted coefficients is strictly related to the cohomology of the Milnor fibre associated to the conified arrangement,…

For a Lie algebroid pair $A\hookrightarrow L$ we study cocycles constructed from the extension to $L$ of the higher connection forms of a representation up to homotopy $E$ of the Lie algebroid $A$. We show that there exists a cohomology…
