Singularities in drawings of singular surfaces

Alain Joets (2008)

Banach Center Publications

Similarity:

When drawing regular surfaces, one creates a concrete and visual example of a projection between two spaces of dimension 2. The singularities of the projection define the apparent contour of the surface. As a result there are two types of generic singularities: fold and cusp (Whitney singularities). The case of singular surfaces is much more complex. A priori, it is expected that new singularities may appear, resulting from the "interaction" between the singularities of the surface and...

The jump of the Milnor number in the X 9 singularity class

Szymon Brzostowski, Tadeusz Krasiński (2014)

Open Mathematics

Similarity:

The jump of the Milnor number of an isolated singularity f 0 is the minimal non-zero difference between the Milnor numbers of f 0 and one of its deformations (f s). We prove that for the singularities in the X 9 singularity class their jumps are equal to 2.
