Review text

In section 11 of his book ``Singular points of complex hypersurfaces (1968; Zbl 0184.484)], \textit{J. Milnor} asks for what values of m and k there exists a real polynomial map f: \({\mathbb{R}}^ m\to {\mathbb{R}}^ k\) with isolated singularity at \(O\in {\mathbb{R}}^ m\) and with nontrivial Milnor fiber. This paper constructs examples for all \(k\geq 3\) using Clifford algebras and describes some of their properties.
