The incidence class and the hierarchy of orbits

László Fehér, Zsolt Patakfalvi (2009)

Open Mathematics

R. Rimányi defined the incidence class of two singularities η and ζ as [η]|ζ, the restriction of the Thom polynomial of η to ζ. He conjectured that (under mild conditions) [η]|ζ ≠ 0 ⇔ ζ ⊂ η ¯ . Generalizing this notion we define the incidence class of two orbits η and ζ of a representation. We give a sufficient condition (positivity) for ζ to have the property that [η]|ζ ≠ 0 ⇔ ζ ⊂ η ¯ for any other orbit η. We show that for many interesting cases, e.g. the quiver representations of Dynkin type positivity...

The index of a vector field tangent to a hypersurface and the signature of the relative jacobian determinant

Xavier Gómez-Mont, Pavao Mardešić (1997)

Annales de l'institut Fourier

Given a real analytic vector field tangent to a hypersurface V with an algebraically isolated singularity we introduce a relative Jacobian determinant in the finite dimensional algebra B Ann B ( h ) associated with the singularity of the vector field on V . We show that the relative Jacobian generates a 1-dimensional non-zero minimal ideal. With its help we introduce a non-degenerate bilinear pairing, and its signature measures the size of this point with sign. The signature satisfies a law of conservation of...

The index of analytic vector fields and Newton polyhedra

Carles Bivià-Ausina (2003)

Fundamenta Mathematicae

We prove that if f:(ℝⁿ,0) → (ℝⁿ,0) is an analytic map germ such that f - 1 ( 0 ) = 0 and f satisfies a certain non-degeneracy condition with respect to a Newton polyhedron Γ₊ ⊆ ℝⁿ, then the index of f only depends on the principal parts of f with respect to the compact faces of Γ₊. In particular, we obtain a known result on the index of semi-weighted-homogeneous map germs. We also discuss non-degenerate vector fields in the sense of Khovanskiĭand special applications of our results to planar analytic vector fields....

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

Szymon Brzostowski, Tadeusz Krasiński (2014)

Open Mathematics

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.

The Łojasiewicz gradient inequality in a neighbourhood of the fibre

Janusz Gwoździewicz, Stanisław Spodzieja (2005)

Annales Polonici Mathematici

Some estimates of the Łojasiewicz gradient exponent at infinity near any fibre of a polynomial in two variables are given. An important point in the proofs is a new Charzyński-Kozłowski-Smale estimate of critical values of a polynomial in one variable.

The Łojasiewicz numbers and plane curve singularities

Evelia García Barroso, Tadeusz Krasiński, Arkadiusz Płoski (2005)

Annales Polonici Mathematici

For every holomorphic function in two complex variables with an isolated critical point at the origin we consider the Łojasiewicz exponent ₀(f) defined to be the smallest θ > 0 such that | g r a d f ( z ) | c | z | θ near 0 ∈ ℂ² for some c > 0. We investigate the set of all numbers ₀(f) where f runs over all holomorphic functions with an isolated critical point at 0 ∈ ℂ².

The Milnor number of functions on singular hypersurfaces

Mariusz Zając (1996)

Banach Center Publications

The behaviour of a holomorphic map germ at a critical point has always been an important part of the singularity theory. It is generally known (cf. [5]) that we can associate an integer invariant - called the multiplicity - to each isolated critical point of a holomorphic function of many variables. Several years later it was noticed that similar invariants exist for function germs defined on isolated hypersurface singularities (see [1]). The present paper aims to show a simple approach to critical...
