A Jacobian module for disentanglements and applications to Mond's conjecture
Given a germ of holomorphic map from to ,
we define a module whose dimension over is an upper bound
for the -codimension of , with equality if is weighted
homogeneous. We also define a relative version of the module, for
unfoldings of . The main result is that if are nice
dimensions, then the dimension of over is an upper bound of
the image Milnor number of , with equality if and only if the relative
module is Cohen-Macaulay for some stable unfolding . In particular,
if is Cohen-Macaulay, then we have Mond's conjecture for .
Furthermore, if is quasi-homogeneous, then Mond's conjecture for is
equivalent to the fact that is Cohen-Macaulay. Finally, we observe
that to prove Mond's conjecture, it suffices to prove it in a suitable family
of examples.Comment: 19 page
Isolated singularities of binary differential equations of degree n
We study isolated singularities of binary differential equations of degree n which are totally real. This means that at any regular point, the associated algebraic equation of degree n has exactly n different real roots (this generalizes the so called positive quadratic differential forms when n = 2). We introduce the concept of index for isolated singularities and generalize Poincar'e-Hopf theorem and Bendixson formula. Moreover, we give a classification of phase portraits of the n-web around a generic singular point. We show that there are only three types, which generalize the Darbouxian umbilics D1, D2 and D3
Disentangling mappings defined on ICIS
We study germs of hypersurfaces that can
be described as the image of -finite mappings defined on an ICIS of dimension . We extend the
definition of the Jacobian module given by Fern\'andez de Bobadilla,
Nu\~no-Ballesteros and Pe\~nafort-Sanchis when , which controls
the image Milnor number . We apply these results to prove the case
of the generalised Mond conjecture, which states that , with equality if is weighted homogeneous.Comment: 19 page
