Poincaré series and monodromy of the simple and unimodal boundary singularities (Q600679): Difference between revisions

A boundary singularity is a singularity of a function on a manifold with boundary. The relation between the characteristic polynomial of the mono\-dromy and the Poincaré series of the ambient hypersurface singularity for such a singularity is investigated. The simple boundary singularities arise from simple hypersuface singularities, and there is a generalization of the McKay correspondence for these cases. For seven of the 12 exceptional uni\-nodal boundary singularities a direct relation between the Poincaré series of the ambient singularity and the characteristic polynomial of the monodromy is given.
