Singularities and duality in the flat geometry of submanifolds of Euclidean spaces.
A stable deformation of a real map-germ is said to be an M-deformation if all isolated stable (local and multi-local) singularities of its complexification are real. A related notion is that of a good real perturbation of f (studied e.g. by Mond and his coworkers) for which the homology of the image (for n < p) or discriminant (for n ≥ p) of coincides with that of . The class of map germs having an M-deformation is, in some sense, much larger than the one having a good real perturbation....
