In analogy with the holomorphic case, we compare the topology of Milnor fibrations associated to a meromorphic germ f/g : the local Milnor fibrations given on Milnor tubes over punctured discs around the critical values of f/g, and the Milnor fibration on a sphere.

New combinatorial model for Milnor fibration using oriented matroids.

New method normalizes Milnor fibrations for real analytic maps.

Milnor fibrations have been studied since 1960's. In this paper, we study singular points of differentiable maps, called Milnor fibration product maps, obtained by several Milnor fibrations. We give a characterization of singular points of such product maps, and for the case of certain weighted homogeneous polynomials,…

Milnor fibrations were extended by Mutsuo Oka for certain mixed polynomial.

We give a characterization of singular points of such…

Study on four-dimensional Dehn twists and Milnor fibrations, revealing new phenomena.

In this survey, we remind some fibrations structure theorems (also called Milnor's fibrations) recently proved in the real and complex case, in the local and global settings. We give several Poincaré-Hopf type formulae which relates the Euler-Poincaré characteristic of these fibers (also called Milnor's fibers) and ind…

In this paper we study the Milnor fibrations associated to real analytic map germs $ψ:(\mathbb{R}^{m},0) \to (\mathbb{R}^2,0)$ with isolated critical point at $0\in \mathbb{R}^{m}$. The main result relates the existence of called Strong Milnor fibrations with a transversality condition of a convenient family of analyti…

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 characteristic varieties of the complement, and their tight relationship with or…

In the present paper, we study deformations of polar weighted homogeneous polynomials which are also polar weighted homogeneous polynomials. We describe a round handle decomposition of the Milnor fibration of a deformation of a polar weighted homogeneous polynomial concretely and give the number of round handles by the…

In this article we study the topology of a family of real analytic germs $F \colon (\mathbb{C}^3,0) \to (\mathbb{C},0)$ with isolated critical point at 0, given by $F(x,y,z)=f(x,y)\bar{g(x,y)}+z^r$, where $f$ and $g$ are holomorphic, $r \in \mathbb{Z}^+$ and $r \geq 2$. We describe the link $L_F$ as a graph manifold us…

There are several topological spaces associated to a complex hyperplane arrangement: the complement and its boundary manifold, as well as the Milnor fiber and its own boundary. All these spaces are related in various ways, primarily by a set of interlocking fibrations. We use cohomology with coefficients in rank 1 loca…

In this paper we extend the characterization of trivial map-germs for the real Milnor fibrations started by Church and Lamotke. Our main result cover all cases on the three dimensional real Milnor fibers.

We are going to use the Euler's vector fields in order to show that for real quasi-homogeneous singularities with isolated critical value, the Milnor's fibration in a "thin" hollowed tube involving the zero level and the fibration in the complement of "link" in sphere are equivalents, since they exist. Moreover, in ord…

We introduce several sufficient conditions to guarantee the existence of the Milnor vector field for new classes of singularities of map germs. This special vector field is related with the equivalence problem of the Milnor fibrations for real and complex singularities, if they exit.

Divides help construct fibered links from singularities.

Study symplectic fillings of sandwiched singularities.

In this article, we study the topology of the family of real analytic germs $F \colon (\mathbb{C}^3,0) \to (\mathbb{C},0)$ given by $F(x,y,z)=\bar{xy}(x^p+y^q)+z^r$ with $p,q,r \in \mathbb{N}$, $p,q,r \geq 2$ and $(p,q)=1$. Such a germ has isolated singularity at 0 and gives rise to a Milnor fibration $\frac{F}{|F|} \c…

The characteristic varieties of a space are the jump loci for homology of rank 1 local systems. The way in which the geometry of these varieties may vary with the characteristic of the ground field is reflected in the homology of finite cyclic covers. We exploit this phenomenon to detect torsion in the homology of Miln…

The paper studies symplectic operations on Stein fillings of Brieskorn singularities.

In this paper, we study the topology of real analytic map-germs with isolated critical value $f: (\mathbb{R}^m,0) \to (\mathbb{R}^n,0)$, with $1 <n <m$. We compare the topology of $f$ with the topology of the compositions $π_i^* \circ f$, where $π_i^*: \mathbb{R}^n \to \mathbb{R}^{n-1}$ are the projections $(t_1, \dots…

When f : R power n to R power p, is a surjective real analytic map with isolated critical value, we prove that the (m)-regularity condition (in a sense we define) ensures that f ||f|| is a fibration on small spheres, f induces a fibration on the tubes and both fibrations are equivalent. In particular, we make the state…

We consider a real analytic map $F=(f_1,...,f_k) : (\mathbb{R}^n,0) \rightarrow (\mathbb{R}^k,0)$, $2 \le k \le n-1$, that satisfies Milnor's conditions (a) and (b) introduced by D. Massey. This implies that every real analytic $f_I=(f_{i_1},...,f_{i_l}) : (\mathbb{R}^n,0) \rightarrow (\mathbb{R}^l,0)$, induced from $F…

Real algebraic structures help classify overtwisted contact 3-spheres.

We give a method for constructing a shadowed polyhedron from a divide. The 4-manifold reconstructed from a shadowed polyhedron admits the structure of a Lefschetz fibration if it satisfies a certain property, which we call the LF-property. We will show that the shadowed polyhedron constructed from a divide satisfies th…

We prove that for two germs of analytic mappings $f,g\colon (\mathbb{C}^n,0) \rightarrow (\mathbb{C}^p,0)$ with the same Newton polyhedra which are (Khovanskii) non-degenerate and their zero sets are complete intersections with isolated singularity at the origin, there is a piecewise analytic family $\{f_t\}$ of analyt…

Research on mixed polynomials, extending non-degeneracy concepts to complex variables.

We prove that a positive allowable Lefschetz fibration, PALF in short, admits a structure of exact Lefschetz fibration in the sense of Seidel \cite{Se08}. If the two-fold first Chern class of the total space is zero, we obtain the Fukaya-Seidel category. We prove that the derived Fukaya-Seidel category of PALF is indep…

In the present article we determine and characterize completely the support genus, the binding number and the norm of a page of an open book under the following restrictions: M is a rational homology sphere which can be realized as the link of a surface singularity. Moreover, we restrict ourselves to the collection of …

For a polynomial $f$ in two complex variables, we prove that the multi-link at infinity of the 0-fiber $f^{-1}(0)$ is a fibred multi-link if and only if all the values different from 0 are regular at infinity.

Let $\mathcal{A}$ be a central hyperplane arrangement in $\mathbb{C}^{n+1}$ and $H_i,i=1,2,...,d$ be the defining equations of the hyperplanes of $\mathcal{A}$. Let $f=\prod_i H_i$. There is a global Milnor fibration $F\hookrightarrow \mathbb{C}^{n+1} \setminus \mathcal{A} \xrightarrow{f} \mathbb{C}^*,$ where $F$ is ca…

We use topology of configuration spaces to give a characterization of Neuwirth--Stallings pairs $(S^5, K)$ with $\dim K = 2$. As a consequence, we construct polynomial map germs $(\mathbb{R}^{6},0)\to (\mathbb{R}^{3},0)$ with an isolated singularity at the origin such that their Milnor fibers are not diffeomorphic to a…

The Milnor fiber conjecture is proven for splice type singularities.

Planar multilinks prove rational singularities in surface geometry.

We study compatible contact structures of fibered, positively-twisted graph multilinks in the 3-sphere and prove that the contact structure of such a multilink is tight if and only if the orientations of its link components are all consistent with or all opposite to the orientation of the fibers of the Seifert fibratio…

We give a necessary condition for a meromorphic function in several variables to give rise to a Milnor fibration of the local link (respectively of the link at infinity). In the case of two variables we give some necessary and sufficient conditions for the local link (respectively the link at infinity) to be fibred.

We encode the variation structure of a quasihomogeneous polynomial with an isolated singularity as introduced by Nemethi in a set of spectral flows of the signature operator on the Milnor bundle by varying global elliptic boundary conditions in a specific way using the quasihomogeneous circle action on the Brieskorn la…

Book teaches how Lagrangian torus fibration base geometry can be read off.

In this article we extend Milnor's fibration theorem for complex singularities to the case of singularities $f \bar g:(X,P) \to (C,0))$ defined on a complex analytic singularity germ $(X,P)$, with $f, g$ holomorphic and $f \bar g$ having an isolated critical value at $0 \in C$. This can also be regarded as a result for…

We describe the $ν$-lines of curvature of an embedding of the double torus into $\mathbb R^4$, defined as the link of the real part of the Milnor fibration of a polynomial, where $ν$ is its gradient. Through this analysis, we present a complete description of the foliation of lines of curvature of the embedding, define…
