Liftable vector fields over corank one multigerms (Q330868): Difference between revisions

Let \(S\) be a finite subset of \({\mathbb K}^n\) (where \({\mathbb K}={\mathbb R}\) or \({\mathbb C}\)) and let \(f:({\mathbb K}^n,S)\to ({\mathbb K}^p,0)\) be an analytic map-germ. Recall that a germ of analytic vector field \(\xi\) at the origin in \({\mathbb K}^p\) is called liftable over \(f\) if \( \xi\circ f\) belongs to the tangent space \(T_e{\mathcal R}(f)\) from determinacy theory, see e.g. \textit{J. N. Mather} [Publ. Math., Inst. Hautes Étud. Sci. 35, 127--156 (1968; Zbl 0159.25001)] and \textit{C. T. C. Wall} [Bull. Lond. Math. Soc. 13, 481--539 (1981; Zbl 0451.58009)]. Such vector fields are known to be an important tool in the study of classification of map-germs. The paper presents a systematic method to construct all liftable vector fields when \(f\) is of corank at most one and admits a one-parameter stable unfolding. A number of examples are explicitly computed.
