We confirm a conjecture of Bernstein–Lunts which predicts that the characteristic variety of a generic polynomial vector field has no homogeneous involutive subvarieties besides the zero section and subvarieties of fibers over singular points.
Let be a two-dimensional complex manifold and a holomorphic map. Let be a curve made of fixed points of , i.e. . We study the dynamics near in case acts as the identity on the normal bundle of the regular part of . Besides results of local nature, we prove that if is a globally and locally irreducible compact curve such that then there exists a point and a holomorphic -invariant curve with on the boundary which is attracted by under the action of . These results are achieved...
We prove the “End Curve Theorem,” which states that a normal surface singularity with rational homology sphere link is a splice quotient singularity if and only if it has an end curve function for each leaf of a good resolution tree. An “end curve function” is an analytic function whose zero set intersects in the knot given by a meridian curve of the exceptional curve corresponding to the given leaf. A “splice quotient singularity” is described by giving an explicit set of equations describing...
By a classical formula due to Enriques, the Euler number χ(X) of the non-singular normalization X of an algebraic surface S with ordinary singularities in P³(ℂ) is given by χ(X) = n(n²-4n+6) - (3n-8)m + 3t - 2γ, where n is the degree of S, m the degree of the double curve (singular locus) of S, t is the cardinal number of the triple points of S, and γ the cardinal number of the cuspidal points of S. In this article we shall give a similar formula for an algebraic threefold with ordinary singularities...
A Weyl arrangement is the arrangement defined by the root system of a finite Weyl group. When a set of positive roots is an ideal in the root poset, we call the corresponding arrangement an ideal subarrangement. Our main theorem asserts that any ideal subarrangement is a free arrangement and that its exponents are given by the dual partition of the height distribution, which was conjectured by Sommers–Tymoczko. In particular, when an ideal subarrangement is equal to the entireWeyl arrangement, our...
Using the path lattice cohomology we provide a conceptual topological characterization of the geometric genus for certain complex normal surface singularities with rational homology sphere links, which is uniformly valid for all superisolated and Newton non-degenerate hypersurface singularities.
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.
