Contact homology for Legendrian submanifolds in standard contact $(2n+1)$-space is rigorously defined using moduli spaces of holomorphic disks with Lagrangian boundary conditions in complex $n$-space. It provides new invariants of…

This paper has been withdrawn. Consider an isolated complex hypersurface singularity, f(x_1,..,x_n)=0. For Newton-non-degenerate singularities the local topology is completely determined by an associated polyhedral object, the Newton…

Family of exact spacetimes of D=3 Einstein gravity interacting with massless scalar field is obtained by suitable dimensional reduction of a class of D=4 plane-symmetric Einstein vacua. These D=3 spacetimes describe collisions of…

We study a number of questions related to the $C^0$-topology of contactomorphisms and contact homeomorphisms. In particular, we show a connection between Rokhlin property of contact homeomorphisms and contact non-squeezing, we define a new…

This article clarifies the status of linearized contact homology given the foundations of the contact dg-algebra established by Pardon. In particular, we prove that the set of isomorphism classes of linearized contact homologies of a closed…

We apply the coherent state approach to study the noncommutative scalar field theory with $\phi^4$ self-interaction and Yukawa coupling to the spinor field. We verify that, contrarily to the commutative result, the scattering amplitude is…

Let D be a closed unit 2-disk on the plane centered at the origin 0, and F be a smooth vector field on D such that O is a unique singular point of F and all other orbits of F are simple closed curves wrapping once around O. Thus…

The formation of singularities on a free surface of a conducting ideal fluid in a strong electric field is considered. It is found that the nonlinear equations of two-dimensional fluid motion can be solved in the small-angle approximation.…

We study the structure of singularities in the discrete Korteweg-deVries (d-KdV) equation. Four different types of singularities are identified. The first type corresponds to localised, `confined', singularities, the confinement constraints…

Partial connections are (singular) differential systems generalizing classical connections on principal bundles, yielding analogous decompositions for manifolds with nonfree group actions. Connection forms are interpreted as maps…

We study the topology of some simple infinite dimensional singularities arising from spaces of \emph{algebraic formal loops}. We prove that in some simple cases the natural analogue of nearby cycles cohomology for a function on the loop…

This paper studies singular contact reduction for cosphere bundles at the zero value of the momentum map. A stratification of the singular quotient, finer than the contact one and better adapted to the bundle structure of the problem, is…

We investigate the geometry of holomorphic curves and complex surfaces from the perspective of singularity theory. We show that, with a suitable choice of a complex bilinear symmetric form, the families of functions and mappings that…

We prove the existence of normal forms for some local real-analytic Levi-flat hypersurfaces with an isolated line singularity. We also give sufficient conditions for that a Levi-flat hypersurface with a complex line as singularity to be a…

According to a well-known theorem of Brieskorn and Slodowy, the intersection of the nilpotent cone of a simple Lie algebra with a transverse slice to the subregular nilpotent orbit is a simple surface singularity. At the opposite extremity…

In two-dimensional random waves, phase singularities are point-like dislocations with a behavior reminiscent of interacting particles. This -- qualitative -- consideration, stems from the spatial arrangement of these entities, which finds…

We give simple characterizations of contact 1-forms in terms of Dirac structures. We also relate normal almost contact structures to the theory of Dirac structures.

The dual complex of a singularity is defined, up-to homotopy, using resolutions of singularities. In many cases, for instance for isolated singularities, we identify and study a "minimal" representative of the homotopy class that is well…

We consider manifolds endowed with a contact pair structure. To such a structure are naturally associated two almost complex structures. If they are both integrable, we call the structure a normal contact pair. We generalize the Morimoto's…

We show that on any closed contact manifold of dimension greater than 1 a contact structure with vanishing contact homology can be constructed. The basic idea for the construction comes from Giroux. We use a special open book decomposition…
