The hard Lefschetz theorem and the topology of semismall maps
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 ⊂ . 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 ⊂ for any other orbit η. We show that for many interesting cases, e.g. the quiver representations of Dynkin type positivity...
Given a real analytic vector field tangent to a hypersurface with an algebraically isolated singularity we introduce a relative Jacobian determinant in the finite dimensional algebra associated with the singularity of the vector field on . 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...
We prove that if f:(ℝⁿ,0) → (ℝⁿ,0) is an analytic map germ such that 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 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.
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.
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 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 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...
