We solve the problem of determining under which conditions the monodromy of a vanishing cycle generates the whole homology of a regular fiber for a polynomial $f(x,y)=g(x)+h(y)$ where $h$ and $g$ are polynomials with real coefficients…

This text surveys cohomological properties of pairs $(U,f)$ consisting of a smooth complex quasi-projective variety $U$ together with a regular function on~it. On the one hand, one tries to mimic the case of a germ of holomorphic function…

We find and describe unexpected isomorphisms between two very different objects associated to hypersurface singularities. One object is the Milnor algebra of a function, while the other object associated to a singularity is the local ring…

Let $(X,x)$ be an isolated complete intersection singularity and let $f : (X,x) \to (\CC,0)$ be the germ of an analytic function with an isolated singularity at $x$. An important topological invariant in this situation is the…

Let f be a polynomial over the complex numbers with an isolated singularity at 0. We show that the multiplicity and the log canonical threshold of f at 0 are invariants of the link of f viewed as a contact submanifold of the sphere. This is…

In this note we determine the Bernstein-Sato polynomial $b_Q(s)$ of a generic central arrangement $Q=\prod_{i=1}^kH_i$ of hyperplanes. We establish a connection between the roots of $b_Q(s)$ and the degrees of the generators for the top…

We construct the limiting mixed Hodge structure of a degeneration of compact K\"ahler manifolds over the unit disk with a possibly non-reduced simple normal crossing singular central fiber via holonomic $\mathscr D$-modules, generalizing…

The motivation for this paper are computer calculations of complete lists of weight systems of quasihomogeneous polynomials with isolated singularity at 0 up to rather large Milnor numbers. We review combinatorial characterizations of such…

We describe how to compute topological objects associated to a polynomial map of several complex variables with isolated singularities. These objects are: the affine critical values, the affine Milnor numbers for all irregular fibers, the…

By using our previous results on L\^e modules and an upper-bound on the betti numbers which we proved with L\^e, we investigate the cohomology of Milnor fibers and the internal local systems given by the vanishing cycles of hypersurfaces…

In this article, we consider the singularity of an arbitrary homogeneous polynomial with complex coefficients $f(x_0,\dots,x_n)$ at the origin of $\mathbb C^{n+1}$, via the study of the monodromy characteristic polynomials $\Delta_l(t)$,…

We construct a class of codimension-2 solutions in supergravity that realize T-folds with arbitrary $O(2,2,\mathbb{Z})$ monodromy and we develop a geometric point of view in which the monodromy is identified with a product of Dehn twists of…

For plane curve singularities we construct a mixed Hodge structure (MHS) over the integers on the fundamental group of the Milnor fiber. The concept nearby fundamental group is introduced and we develop a theory of iterated integrals along…

A general vanishing result for the first cohomology group of affine smooth complex varieties with values in rank one local systems is established. This is applied to the determination of the monodromy action on the first cohomology group of…

The integrability problem for transitive Lie algebroids can be looked at from different perspectives, revealing an interplay between cohomological methods and homotopical constructions. Mackenzie introduced a cohomological obstruction…

We define a monodromy homomorphism for irreducible families of regular elliptic fibrations which takes values in the mapping class group of a punctured sphere. We compute the monodromy for elliptic fibrations only which contain no singular…

The monodromy conjecture is a mysterious open problem in singularity theory. Its original version relates arithmetic and topological/geometric properties of a multivariate polynomial $f$ over the integers, more precisely, poles of the…

We use covering space theory and the fundamental group of complements of complexified-real line arrangements to explore the associated Milnor fiber. This work yields a combinatorially determined upper bound on the rank of the first homology…

Two of the main open problems in the theory of contact loci are the arc-Floer conjecture, which states that the compactly supported cohomology of the restricted $m$-contact locus and the fixed-point Floer cohomology of the $m$-th iterate of…

In this article, we consider an infinite family of normal surface singularities with an integral homology sphere link which is related to the family of space monomial curves with a plane semigroup. These monomial curves appear as the…
