A topological version of Bertini's theorem

Artur Piękosz (1995)

Annales Polonici Mathematici

Similarity:

We give a topological version of a Bertini type theorem due to Abhyankar. A new definition of a branched covering is given. If the restriction π V : V → Y of the natural projection π: Y × Z → Y to a closed set V ⊂ Y × Z is a branched covering then, under certain assumptions, we can obtain generators of the fundamental group π₁((Y×Z).

The cohomology algebras of orientable Seifert manifolds and applications to Lusternik-Schnirelmann category

J. Bryden, P. Zvengrowski (1998)

Banach Center Publications

Similarity:

This note gives a complete description of the cohomology algebra of any orientable Seifert manifold with ℤ/p coefficients, for an arbitrary prime p. As an application, the existence of a degree one map from an orientable Seifert manifold onto a lens space is completely determined. A second application shows that the Lusternik-Schnirelmann category for a large class of Seifert manifolds is equal to 3, which in turn is used to verify the Ganea conjecture for these Seifert manifolds. ...

Simultaneous reduction to normal forms of commuting singular vector fields with linear parts having Jordan blocks

Masafumi Yoshino, Todor Gramchev (2008)

Annales de l’institut Fourier

Similarity:

We study the simultaneous linearizability of d –actions (and the corresponding d -dimensional Lie algebras) defined by commuting singular vector fields in ℂ n fixing the origin with nontrivial Jordan blocks in the linear parts. We prove the analytic convergence of the formal linearizing transformations under a certain invariant geometric condition for the spectrum of d vector fields generating a Lie algebra. If the condition fails and if we consider the situation where small denominators...
