The Milnor fibre of any isolated hypersurface singularity contains many exact Lagrangian spheres: the vanishing cycles associated to a Morsification of the singularity. Moreover, for simple singularities, it is known that the only possible exact Lagrangians are spheres. We construct exact Lagrangian tori in the Milnor …

The paper proves a conjecture about spacetimes and singularities.

Cylindrical contact homology computed for links of simple singularities.

The complex Lie superalgebras $\mathfrak{g}$ of type $D(2,1;a)$ - also denoted by $\mathfrak{osp}(4,2;a)$ - are usually considered for "non-singular" values of the parameter $a$, for which they are simple. In this paper we introduce five suitable integral forms of $\mathfrak{g}$, that are well-defined at singular valu…

Tangential families are 1-parameter families of rays emanating tangentially from smooth curves. We classify tangential family germs up to Left-Right equivalence: we prove that there are two infinite series and four sporadic simple singularities of tangential family germs (in addition to two stable singularities). We gi…

We give useful and simple criteria for determining D_4 singularities of wave fronts. As an application, we investigate behaviors of singular curvatures of cuspidal edges near D_4^+ singularities.

Study shows Lefschetz fibrations on Milnor fibers of certain singularities.

The paper is on the vanishing topology of singular Milnor fibres of holomorphic families of arbitrary square, symmetric and skew-symmetric matrices with sufficiently many parameters. We define vanishing cycles on such fibres, prove an extended form of the Damon-Pike $μ=τ$ conjecture about the families of a special type…

This is the continuation of our paper \cite{GS}, to study the linear theory for equations with conical singularities. We derive interior Schauder estimates for linear elliptic and parabolic equations with a background Kähler metric of conical singularities along a divisor of simple normal crossings. As an application, …

Study proves surfaces with constant curvature are simple shapes.

Study on the parity of fold map singular points, showing non-invariance for odd-dimensional manifolds.

Recently it was shown by H. Guenancia and M. Paun that a singular metric satisfying the conical Kahler-Einstein equation with a simple normal crossing divisor is equivalent to a conical metric along that divisor. In this note, we present an alternative proof of their theorem.

We give a simple direct proof of uniqueness of tangent cones for singular projectively Hermitian Yang-Mills connections on reflexive sheaves at isolated singularities modelled on $μ$-polystable holomorphic bundles over $\mathbf{P}^{n-1}$.

In this note, we prove a quantization formula for singular reductions. The main result is obtained as a simple application of an extended quantization formula proved in [TZ2].

We study complex spatial quartic surfaces with simple singularities up to equisingular deformations; as a first step, give a complete equisingular deformation classification of the so-called non-special simple quartic surfaces.

We give useful criteria for S_1 singularities in the Mond classification table, and cuspidal S_k singularities. As applications, we give a simple proof of a result given by Mond and a characterization of cuspidal S_k singularities for the composition of a cuspidal edge and a fold map indicated by Arnol'd for the case k…

Formula proves Euler characteristic of singularized surfaces.

We define an equivalence relation called A-isotopy between finitely determined map-germs, which is a strengthened version of A-equivalence. We consider the number of A-isotopy classes of equidimensional Morin singularities, and some other well-known low-dimensional singularities. We also give an application to stable p…

We identify the canonical contact structure on the link of a simple elliptic or cusp singularity by drawing a Legendrian handlebody diagram of one of its Stein fillings. We also show that the canonical contact structure on the link of a numerically Gorenstein surface singularity is trivial considered as a real plane bu…

We construct flat 3-webs via semi-simple geometric Frobenius manifolds of dimension three and give geometric interpretation of the Chern connection of the web. These webs turned out to be biholomorphic to the characteristic webs on the solutions of the corresponding associativity equation. We show that such webs are he…

Extends foliation results to singular cases.

For the Kähler-Ricci flow on a compact Kähler manifold with semi-ample canonical line bundle, we prove the singularity type at infinity does not depend on the choice of the initial metric. We also provide new simple proofs for some existing classification results on infinite-time singularity type of the Kähler-Ricci fl…

Two singular links are cobordant if one can be obtained from the other by singular link isotopy together with a combination of births or deaths of simple unknotted curves, and saddle point transformations. A movie description of a singular link cobordism in 4-space is a sequence of singular link diagrams obtained from …

Study focuses on classifying special geometric structures.

Any singular level of a completely integrable system (c.i.s.) with non-degenerate singularities has a singular affine structure. We shall show how to construct a simple c.i.s. around the level, having the above affine structure. The cotangent budle of the desingularised level is used to perform the construction, and th…

A new method reduces task interference in model merging.

We show that the singularities of spacelike maximal surfaces in Lorentz-Minkowski 3-space generically consist of cuspidal edges, swallowtails and cuspidal cross caps. The same result holds for spacelike mean curvature one surfaces in de Sitter 3-space. To prove these, we shall give a simple criterion for a given singul…

Study Z2 harmonic functions with singularities on flat space.

The classifying spaces of cobordisms of singular maps have two fairly different constructions. We expose a homotopy theoretical connection between them. As a corollary we show that the classifying spaces in some cases have a simple product structure.

It is well-known that any isotopically connected diffeomorphism group $G$ of a manifold determines uniquely a singular foliation $\F_G$. A one-to-one correspondence between the class of singular foliations and a subclass of diffeomorphism groups is established. As an illustration of this correspondence it is shown that…

Using an inverse system of metric graphs as in: J. Cheeger and B. Kleiner, "Inverse limit spaces satisfying a Poincaré inequality", we provide a simple example of a metric space $X$ that admits Poincaré inequalities for a continuum of mutually singular measures.

We give a new and simple proof for the computation of the oriented and the unoriented fold cobordism groups of Morse functions on surfaces. We also compute similar cobordism groups of Morse functions based on simple stable maps of 3-manifolds into the plane. Furthermore, we show that certain cohomology classes associat…

This paper studies the normalized Ricci flow on surfaces with conical singularities. It's proved that the normalized Ricci flow has a solution for a short time for initial metrics with conical singularities. Moreover, the solution makes good geometric sense. For some simple surfaces of this kind, for example, the tear …

Invariants count singularities and vertices of plane curves.

In this paper, we extend the existence and regularity theorems for Kähler-Einstein metrics having conic singularities along a simple normal crossing divisor to the case of normal crossing divisor, i.e. when components of the divisor are allowed to intersect themselves transversely.

We study fundamental groups of projective varieties with normal crossing singularities and of germs of complex singularities. We prove that for every finitely-presented group G there is a complex projective surface S with simple normal crossing singularities only, so that the fundamental group of S is isomorphic to G. …
