Splitting of singularities

Equisingularity (topological and analytic) (32S15) Deformations of complex singularities; vanishing cycles (32S30) Milnor fibration; relations with knot theory (32S55)

Abstract: We study one parameter deformations of a pair consisting of an analytic singular space

X_{0}

and a function

f_{0}

on it, in case this defines an isolated singularity. We prove, under general conditions, a bouquet decomposition of the Milnor fibre when the isolated singularity splits in the deformation and the invariance of the Milnor fibration if there is no splitting.

Review text

Let \((X,0)\) be the germ of an analytic space, and let \(f : (X;0) \to (\mathbb{C},0)\) be an analytic function germ. One parameter deformations of the pair \(\bigl((X,0),f\bigr)\) are studied. It is proved, under quite general conditions, that the Milnor fibre is homotopy equivalent to the bouquet of the Milnor fibres of the isolated singularities into which it splits in the deformation. If there is no splitting, then the Milnor fibre is homotopically constant.
