{"product_id":"9789814596053","title":"Topics On Real And Complex Singularities: Proceedings of the 4th Japanese-Australian Workshop (JARCS4)","description":"\u003cp\u003eA phenomenon which appears in nature, or human behavior, can sometimes be explained by saying that a certain potential function is maximized, or minimized. For example, the Hamiltonian mechanics, soapy films, size of an atom, business management, etc. In mathematics, a point where a given function attains an extreme value is called a critical point, or a singular point. The purpose of singularity theory is to explore the properties of singular points of functions and mappings.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis is a volume on the proceedings of the fourth Japanese–Australian Workshop on Real and Complex Singularities held in Kobe, Japan. It consists of 11 original articles on singularities. Readers will be introduced to some important new notions for characterizations of singularities and several interesting results are delivered. In addition, current approaches to classical topics and state-of-the-art effective computational methods of invariants of singularities are also presented. This volume will be useful not only to the singularity theory specialists but also to general mathematicians.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cb\u003eContents:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOn the CR Hamiltonian Flows and CR Yamabe Problem \u003ci\u003e(T Akahori)\u003c\/i\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAn Example of the Reduction of a Single Ordinary Differential Equation to a System, and the Restricted Fuchsian Relation \u003ci\u003e(K Ando)\u003c\/i\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFronts of Weighted Cones \u003ci\u003e(T Fukui and M Hasegawa)\u003c\/i\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eInvolutive Deformations of the Regular Part of a Normal Surface \u003ci\u003e(A Harris and K Miyajima)\u003c\/i\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eConnected Components of Regular Fibers of Differentiable Maps \u003ci\u003e(J T Hiratuka and O Saeki)\u003c\/i\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe Reconstruction and Recognition Problems for Homogeneous Hypersurface Singularities \u003ci\u003e(A V Isaev)\u003c\/i\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOpenings of Differentiable Map-Germs and Unfoldings \u003ci\u003e(G Ishikawa)\u003c\/i\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNon Concentration of Curvature near Singular Points of Two Variable Analytic Functions \u003ci\u003e(S Koike, T-C Kuo and L Paunescu)\u003c\/i\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSaito Free Divisors in Four Dimensional Affine Space and Reflection Groups of Rank Four \u003ci\u003e(J Sekiguchi)\u003c\/i\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHolonomic Systems of Differential Equations of Rank Two with Singularities along Saito Free Divisors of Simple Type \u003ci\u003e(J Sekiguchi)\u003c\/i\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eParametric Local Cohomology Classes and Tjurina Stratifications for \u003ci\u003eμ\u003c\/i\u003e-Constant Deformations of Quasi-Homogeneous Singularities \u003ci\u003e(S Tajima)\u003c\/i\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReadership:\u003c\/b\u003e Mathematicians in singularity theory or in adjacent areas; advanced undergraduates and graduate students in mathematics; non-experts interested in singularity theory and its applications.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eKey Features:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eContains applications of the singularity theory to other mathematical fields\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNew topics in singularity theory, e.g. the relationship between free divisors and holonomic systems, openings of differentiable map-germs, non-concentration of curvature\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIncludes articles by prize-winning researchers like Kimio Miyajima and Osamu Saeki\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"World Scientific Publishing Company, Incorporated","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47150266646768,"sku":"9789814596053","price":46.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9789814596053_p0.jpg?v=1763691068","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9789814596053","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
