We prove the existence of resolution of singularities for arbitrary (not necessarily reduced or irreducible) excellent two-dimensional schemes, via permissible blow-ups. The resolution is canonical, and functorial with respect to…
I begin by explaining to non-specialists why resolution of singularities in characteristic 0 works. Then I go into some ideas telling how it actually works. I finish with a brief discussion of related results on foliations. I report on work…
Consider a self-similar space X. A typical situation is that X looks like several copies of itself glued to several copies of another space Y, and Y looks like several copies of itself glued to several copies of X, or the same kind of thing…
In this paper, we investigate semilinear elliptic equations with general exponential-type nonlinearities in two dimensions. For such nonlinearities, we establish two main results. The first is the construction of a singular solution.…
Let $(R,\mathfrak{m})$ be a complete local ring, and $G={\rm gr}_{\mathfrak{m}}(R)$ be its associated graded ring. We introduce a homogenization technique which allows to relate $G$ to the special fiber and $R$ to the generic fiber of a…
A finite subgroup of the conformal group SL(2,C) can be related to invariant polynomials on a hypersurface in C^3. The latter then carries a simple singularity, which resolves by a finite iteration of basic cycles of deprojections. The…
We prove in this note that local geometric uniqueness holds true without loss of regularity for Einstein equations coupled with a large class of matter models. We thus extend the Planchon-Rodnianski uniqueness theorem for vacuum spacetimes.…
A new homological dimension is introduced to measure the quality of resolutions of `singular' finite dimensional algebras (of infinite global dimension) by `regular' ones (of finite global dimension). Upper bounds are established in terms…
This text, which appeared in volume 2313 of the Springer Lecture Notes in Math. dedicated to Catriona Byrne, presents problems in two different areas of algebraic geometry. The first concerns the role of ``infinitely singular'' or ``non…
We apply the local removable singularity theorem for minimal laminations and the local picture theorem on the scale of topology to obtain two descriptive results for certain possibly singular minimal laminations of $\mathbb{R}^3$. These two…
A possible way to resolve the singularities of general relativity is proposed based on the assumption that the description of space-time using commuting coordinates is not valid above a certain fundamental scale. Beyond that scale it is…
We prove an equivariant version of Hironaka's theorem on elimination of points of indeterminacy. Our arguments rely on canonical resolution of singularities.
The dual complex associated to a resolution of singularities generalizes the notion of a resolution graph of a surface singularity to any dimension. We show that homotopy type of the dual complex is an invariant of an isolated singularity.
In this paper, using the similarity method, we construct particular solutions with singularities for degenerate high-order equations. The considered equations have singularities of the first and second kind. Particular solutions are…
An algorithm for resolution of singularities in characteristic zero is described. It is expressed in terms of multi-ideals, that essentially are defined as a finite sequence of pairs, each one consiting of a sheaf of ideals and a positive…
There exists a well established differential topological theory of singularities of ordinary differential equations. It has mainly studied scalar equations of low order. We propose an extension of the key concepts to arbitrary systems of…
Analytical methods are used to prove the existence of a periodic, symmetric solution with singularities in the planar 4-body problem. A numerical calculation and simulation are used to generate the orbit. The analytical method easily…
The type-Q equations lie on the top level of the hierarchy introduced by Adler, Bobenko and Suris (ABS) in their classification of discrete counterparts of KdV-type integrable partial differential equations. We ask what singularities are…
We prove the uniqueness of crepant resolutions for some quotient singularities and for some nilpotent orbits. The finiteness of non-isomorphic symplectic resolutions for 4-dimenensional symplectic singularities is proved. We also give an…
We consider the problem of birationally modifying a morphism of complete varieties to make it a morphism from a nonsingular variety to a normal variety. Our main result is to give a counterexample to this problem. This example also is a…
