Characterization of isolated homogeneous hypersurface singularities in C4

Let V be a hypersurface with an isolated singularity at the origin in Cn+1. It is a natural question to ask when V is defined by weighted homogeneous polynomial or homogeneous polynomial up to biholomorphic change of coordinates. In 1971, a beautiful theorem of Saito gives a necessary and sufficient condition for V to be defined by a weighted homogeneous polynomial.For a two-dimensional isolated hypersurface singularity V, Xu and Yau found a coordinate free characterization for V to be defined by a homogeneous polynomial. Recently Lin and Yau gave necessary and sufficient conditions for a 3-dimensional isolated hypersurface singularity with geometric genus bi.er than zero to be defined by a homogeneous polynomial. The purpose of this paper is to prove that Lin-Yau's theorem remains true for singularities with geometric genus equal to zero.

LG/CY Correspondence Between tt* Geometries

The concept of $tt^∗$ geometric structure was introduced by physicists (see [4, 10] and references therein), and then studied firstly in mathematics by C. Hertling [28]. It is believed that the $tt^∗$ geometric structure contains the whole genus 0 information of a two dimensional topological field theory. In this paper, we propose the LG/CY correspondence conjecture for $tt^∗$ geometry and obtain the following result. Let $f ∈ \mathbb{C}[z_0,...,z_{n+1}]$ be a nondegenerate homogeneous polynomial of degree $nThe concept of $tt^∗$ geometric structure was introduced by physicists (see [4, 10] and references therein), and then studied firstly in mathematics by C.

A solvability criterion for the Lie algebra of derivations of a fat point

We consider the Lie algebra of derivations of a zero-dimensional local complex algebra. We describe an inequality involving the embedding dimension, the order, and the first deviation that forces this Lie algebra to be solvable. Our result was motivated by and generalizes the solvability of the Yau algebra of an isolated hypersurface singularity.     

Homology of homogeneous divisors

This work deals with arbitrary reduced free divisors in a polynomial ring over a field of characteristic zero, by stressing the ideal theoretic and homological behavior of the corresponding singular locus. A particular emphasis is given to both weighted homogeneous and homogeneous polynomials, allowing to introduce new families of free divisors not coming from either hyperplane arrangements or discriminants in singularity theory.     

Smooth hypersurfaces with a CR contraction

In this paper we show that a C^∞ real hypersurface in Cn+1 of finite D'Angelo type admitting a weakly contracting local CR automorphism is CR equivalent to a weighted homogeneous hypersurface. As an application, we show that a bounded pseudoconvex domain in Cn+1 with C^∞ boundary of finite D'Angelo type with a hyperbolic orbit accumulation point is biholomorphically equivalent to a domain defined by a weighted homogeneous polynomial.     

Enumeration of holomorphic cylinders in log Calabi–Yau surfaces. I

We define the counting of holomorphic cylinders in log Calabi–Yau surfaces. Although we start with a complex log Calabi–Yau surface, the counting is achieved by applying methods from non-archimedean geometry. This gives rise to new geometric invariants. Moreover, we prove that the counting satisfies a property of symmetry. Explicit calculations are given for a del Pezzo surface in detail, which verify the conjectured wall-crossing formula for the focus-focus singularity. Our holomorphic cylinders are expected to give a geometric understanding of the combinatorial notion of broken line by Gross, Hacking, Keel and Siebert. Our tools include Berkovich spaces, tropical geometry, Gromov–Witten theory and the GAGA theorem for non-archimedean analytic stacks.     

On the Ranks and Border Ranks of Symmetric Tensors

Motivated by questions arising in signal processing, computational complexity, and other areas, we study the ranks and border ranks of symmetric tensors using geometric methods. We provide improved lower bounds for the rank of a symmetric tensor (i.e., a homogeneous polynomial) obtained by considering the singularities of the hypersurface defined by the polynomial. We obtain normal forms for polynomials of border rank up to five, and compute or bound the ranks of several classes of polynomials, including monomials, the determinant, and the permanent.     

A Characterization of Homogeneous Spaces with Positive Hyperbolic Rank

Here we present a necessary and sufficient condition for a negatively curved homogeneous space to be a rank one symmetric space. In particular, we show rigidity if such a space has positive hyperbolic rank greater than equal to that of its 'Abelian direction'. The notion of hyperbolic-rank extends the notion of rank in negatively curved spaces. The central theorem is an analogue of a result by U. Hamenstädt for compact negatively curved manifolds. We also provide an example of a nonsymmetric hyperbolic rank two homogeneous space, demonstrating the sharpness of the theorem.     

On Generalizations of the Frank-Wolfe Theorem to Convex and Quasi-Convex Programmes

In this paper we are concerned with the problem of boundedness and the existence of optimal solutions to the constrained optimization problem. We present necessary and sufficient conditions for boundedness of either a faithfully convex or a quasi-convex polynomial function over the feasible set defined by a system of faithfully convex inequality constraints and/or quasi-convex polynomial inequalities, where the faithfully convex functions satisfy some mild assumption. The conditions are provided in the form of an algorithm, terminating after a finite number of iterations, the implementation of which requires the identification of implicit equality constraints in a homogeneous linear system. We prove that the optimal solution set of the considered problem is nonempty, this way extending the attainability result well known as the so-called Frank-Wolfe theorem. Finally we show that our extension of the Frank-Wolfe theorem immediately implies continuity of the solution set defined by the considered system of (quasi)convex inequalities.     

Stability properties of autonomous homogeneous polynomial differential systems

A geometrical approach is used to derive a generalized characteristic value problem for dynamic systems described by homogeneous polynomials. It is shown that a nonlinear homogeneous polynomial system possesses eigenvectors and eigenvalues, quantities normally associated with a linear system. These quantities are then employed in studying stability properties. The necessary and sufficient conditions for all forms of stabilities characteristic of a two-dimensional system are provided. This result, together with the classical theorem of Frommer, completes a stability analysis for a two-dimensional homogeneous polynomial system.     

Measuring the closeness to singularities of a planar parallel manipulator using geometric algebra

A new index for measuring the closeness to the singularities of parallel manipulators using geometric algebra is proposed in this paper. Constraint wrenches acting on the moving platform of a parallel manipulator are derived using the outer product and dual operations. Removing the redundant constraint wrenches, a singularity polynomial is obtained when the coefficient of the outer product of all the non-redundant constraint wrenches equals zero. A singularity surface can be drawn using the singularity polynomial. Similarly, an approximate singularity polynomial and approximate singularity surface can be obtained by imposing a threshold to the singular polynomial. Then the singularity volume is calculated as the space between singularity surface and approximate singularity surface. The new index is derived by calculating the ratio of the non-singularity workspace volume (the workspace volume minus the singularity volume) to the workspace volume. The proposed index is coordinate-free and has a clear geometrical and physical interpretation. This index can be a basis for selecting structural parameters, path planning and mechanism design.

Affine Versions of Singer's Theorem on Locally Homogeneous Spaces

A theorem of Singer says that an infinitesimaly homogeneous Riemannian manifold is locally homogeneous. We propose two result on affine connections similar to the theorem of Singer. As an application we prove a theorem giving a sufficient condition for local homogeneity in case of affine connections on 2-dimensional manifolds.     

A GEOMETRIC SPLITTING AND THE C∞ STABILITY OF MAPS FROM SEMIANALYTIC SETS

Abstract

John Mather has proved that infinitesimal stability implies stability for proper maps in the category of smooth manifolds. This result gives a computable algebraic criterion for stability. In this paper it is shown that there is an extension of Mather's result when the range is only assumed to be a compact semianalytic set of some real Euclidean space—this class of spaces is an obvious maximal candidate for which computations can be carried out using only classical polynomial algebra. The proof depends on a splitting theorem for the restriction map from the smooth functions on a Euclidean space to those on a closed subset and is proved by an algebraic-geometric method derived from the work of B. Malgrange. No knowledge of functional analysis is assumed although an alternative analytic method for proving the main result is also indicated. Only simple applications are given (mostly to functions defined locally in the neighbourhood of an isolated hypersurface singularity of the type studied by J. Milnor and others) since the author intends to publish a fairly comprehensive study of stability (smooth and C°) of smooth maps on closed semianalytic sets.

Algebraic Levi-Flat Hypervarieties in Complex Projective Space

We study singular real-analytic Levi-flat hypersurfaces in complex projective space. We define the rank of an algebraic Levi-flat hypersurface and study the connections between rank, degree, and the type and size of the singularity. In particular, we study degenerate singularities of algebraic Levi-flat hypersurfaces. We then give necessary and sufficient conditions for a Levi-flat hypersurface to be a pullback of a real-analytic curve in ℂ via a meromorphic function. Among other examples, we construct a nonalgebraic semianalytic Levi-flat hypersurface with compact leaves that is a perturbation of an algebraic Levi-flat variety.
