The purpose of this paper is to show how Rees algebras can be applied in the study of singularities embedded in smooth schemes over perfect fields. In particular, we will study situations in which the multiplicity of a hypersurface is a…

Building upon works of Hironaka, Bierstone-Milman, Villamayor and Wlodarczyk, we give an a priori estimate for the complexity of the simplified Hironaka algorithm. As a consequence of this result, we show that there exists canonical…

Assume that there exists a hypersurface singularity which cannot be resolved by iterated monoidal transformations in positive characteristic. We show that in the set of defining functions of hypersurface singularities which cannot be…

Hironaka's concept of characteristic polyhedron of a singularity has been one of the most powerful and fruitful ideas of the last decades in singularity theory. In fact, since then combinatorics have become a major tool in many important…

We discuss to what extent the local techniques of resolution of singularities over fields of characteristic zero can be applied to improve singularities in general. For certain interesting classes of singularities, this leads to an embedded…

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…

In this paper we classify the unimodal isolated complete intersection singularities in arbitrary characteristic under contact equivalence. The classification over $\mathbb{C}$ has already done by A. Dimca and C.G. Gibson. We continue and…

These expository notes, addressed to non-experts, are intended to present some of Hironaka's ideas on his theorem of resolution of singularities. We focus particularly on those aspects which have played a central role in the constructive…

In this paper we develop methods to extend the minimal hypersurface approach to positive scalar curvature problems to all dimensions. This includes a proof of the positive mass theorem in all dimensions without a spin assumption. It also…

Considerations based on the known relation between different characteristic classes for singular hypersufaces suggest that a form of the `inclusion-exclusion' principle may hold for Segre classes. We formulate and prove such a principle for…

In this survey paper we give an overview on some aspects of singularities of algebraic varieties over an algebraically closed field of arbitrary characteristic. We review in particular results on equisingularity of plane curve…

Effective methods are introduced for testing zero-dimensionality of varieties at a point. The motivation of this paper is to compute and analyze deformations of isolated hypersurface singularities. As an application, methods for computing…

This article contains an elementary constructive proof of resolution of singularities in characteristic zero. Our proof applies in particular to schemes of finite type and to analytic spaces (so we recover the great theorems of Hironaka).…

We formulate a resolution of singularities algorithm for analyzing the zero sets of real-analytic functions in dimensions $\geq 3$. Rather than using the celebrated result of Hironaka, the algorithm is modeled on a more explicit and…

The paper introduces a number of new techniques to handle minimal hyersurface singularities. In particular, they allow to extend the obstruction theory for postive scalr curvature to any dimension.

Algorithms for resolution of singularities in characteristic zero are based on Hironaka's idea of reducing the problem to a simpler question of desingularization of an "idealistic exponent" (or "marked ideal"). How can we determine whether…

We discuss Hironaka's theorem on resolution of singularities in charactetistic 0 as well as more recent progress, both on simplifying and improving Hironaka's method of proof and on new results and directions on families of varieties,…

We introduce Veronese-Avoiding hypersurfaces, inspired by the theory of associated forms of Alper--Isaev. In the smooth case, we reinterpret their criterion via Macaulay inverse systems: the Veronese-Avoiding condition is equivalent to the…

The present paper describes a way to relate Martin boundaries on spaces of varying topology. This enables us to approach some detailed inductive analysis of the eigenfunctions of conformal Laplacians on minimal hypersurfaces near their…

We study singularities f in K[[x_1,...,x_n]] over an algebraically closed field K of arbitrary characteristic with respect to right respectively contact equivalence, and we establish that the finiteness of the Milnor respectively the…
