Develops a Thom-Mather theory for corank 1 frontals.

Study on unfolding maps of surfaces in 3D space, proving versality conditions.

We derive simple forms for saddle-node singular points of analytic foliations in the real or complex plane just by gluing foliated complex manifolds. We give the versal analytic deformation of the simplest model. We also derive a unique analytic form for those saddle-node having a central manifold. By this way, we reco…

Researchers describe how special conic bundles deform into double solids.

Perfect pairing for tropical cycles on integral affine manifolds.

Let $π:M\to B$ be a proper holomorphic submersion between complex manifolds and ${\cal E}$ a holomorphic bundle on $M$. We study and describe explicitly the torsion subsheaf $\mathrm{Tors}(R^1π_*({\cal E}))$ of the first direct image $R^1π_*(\mathcal{E})$ under the assumption $R^0π_*(\mathcal{E})=0$. We give two applic…

We construct a versal family of deformations of CR structures in five dimensions, using a differential complex closely related to the differential form complex introduced by Rumin for contact manifolds.

Given an $SL(3)$ spectral curve over a simply connected Riemann surface, we describe in detail the reduction steps necessary to construct the core of a pre-building with versal harmonic map whose differential is given by the spectral curve.

We study a moduli stratum of A-orbits of plane-to-plane germs of corank 2 with codimension 3. We describe explicitly the bifurcation diagram of its topologically A-versal unfolding. Two geometric applications to parabolic objects are presented.

We study the singularities of the members of the family of height functions on Whitney umbrellas, which is also known as cross-caps, and show that the family of the height functions is a versal unfolding. Moreover, we study local intersections of a Whitney umbrella with a hyperplane through its singular point.

The aim of this paper is to compare stratifications of moduli spaces given by group actions in the case of similarity of matrices introduced by Arnold and the author's stratification by projective orbifolds, and its relation to deformations o elements in the moduli space.

The seven non euclidean geometries of the Thurston's geometrization program are proved to originate naturally from singularization morphisms and versal deformations on euclidean 3-manifolds generated in the frame of the Langlands global program. The Poincare conjecture for a 3-manifold appears as a particular case of t…

Let $X$ be a compact smooth manifold with boundary. In this article, we study the spaces $\mathcal V^\dagger(X)$ and $\mathcal V^\ddagger(X)$ of so called boundary generic and traversally generic vector fields on $X$ and the place they occupy in the space $\mathcal V(X)$ of all fields (see Theorems \ref{th3.4} and Theo…

Singularities of even smooth functions are studied. A classification of singular points which appear in typical parametric families of even functions with at most five parameters is given. Bifurcations of singular points near a caustic value of the parameter are also studied. A determinant for singularity types and con…

The simplest non-trivial solutions of WDVV equations are A_n and B_n-potentials, which describe metrics of K.Saito on spaces of versal deformation of A_n and B_n-singularities. These are some polynomials, which were known for $n\leqslant$ 4. We find some recurrence relations, which give a possibility to find all A_n an…

A projective structure on a compact Riemann surface X of genus g is given by an atlas with transition functions in PGL(2,C). Equivalently, a projective structure is given by a projective sl(2,C)-bundle over X equipped with a section s and a foliation F which is both transversal to the fibers and the section s. From thi…

The notion of highly structured ring spectra of prime characteristic is made precise and is studied via the versal examples S//p for prime numbers p. These can be realized as Thom spectra, and therefore relate to other Thom spectra such as the unoriented bordism spectrum MO. We compute the Hochschild and André-Quillen …

We establish a connection between smooth symplectic resolutions and symplectic deformations of a (possibly singular) affine Poisson variety. In particular, let V be a finite-dimensional complex symplectic vector space and G\subset Sp(V) a finite subgroup. Our main result says that the so-called Calogero-Moser deformati…

Let W -> A^2 be the universal Weierstrass family of cubic curves over C. For each N >= 2, we construct surfaces parametrizing the three standard kinds of level N structures on the smooth fibers of W. We then complete these surfaces to finite covers of A^2. Since W -> A^2 is the versal deformation space of a cusp singul…

We prove the genus zero part of the generalized Witten conjecture relating moduli spaces of spin curves to Gelfand-Dickey hierarchies. That is, we show that intersection numbers on the moduli space of stable r-spin curves assemble into a generating function which yields a solution of the semiclassical limit of the KdV_…

We find all $P$-resolutions of quotient surface singularities (especially, tetrahedral, octahedral, and icosahedral singularities) together with their dual graphs, which reproduces Jan Steven's list [Manuscripta Math. 1993] of the numbers of $P$-resolutions of each singularities. We then compute the dimensions and Miln…

The first, second and fourth Painlevé equations are studied by means of dynamical systems theory and three dimensional weighted projective spaces $\C P^3(p,q,r,s)$ with suitable weights $(p,q,r,s)$ determined by the Newton diagrams of the equations or the versal deformations of vector fields. Singular normal forms of t…

Generative adversarial networks (GANs) are pow- erful generative models based on providing feed- back to a generative network via a discriminator network. However, the discriminator usually as- sesses individual samples. This prevents the dis- criminator from accessing global distributional statistics of generated samp…

Method calculates Parisian stopping times and option prices using Markov chains.

Study plane curve singularities to determine vanishing cycles and monodromy groups.

In this paper by using Teichmuller theory of a sphere with four holes/orbifold points, we obtain a system of flat coordinates on the general affine cubic surface having a D_4 singularity at the origin. We show that the Goldman bracket on the geodesic functions on the four-holed/orbifold sphere coincides with the Etingo…

The paper generalizes envelope constructions for chords in circles, revealing complex singularities.

In this article we introduce new affinely invariant points---`special parabolic points'---on the parabolic set of a generic surface $M$ in real 4-space, associated with symmetries in the 2-parameter family of reflexions of $M$ in points of itself. The parabolic set itself is detected in this way, and each arc is given …

In this paper, we discuss the recognition problem for A_k-type singularities on wave fronts. We give computable and simple criteria of these singularities, which will play a fundamental role in generalizing the authors' previous work "the geometry of fronts" for surfaces. The crucial point to prove our criteria for A_k…
