Description

This book features state-of-the-art research on singularities in geometry, topology, foliations and dynamics and provides an overview of the current state of singularity theory in these settings. Singularity theory is at the crossroad of various branches of mathematics and science in general. In recent years there have been remarkable developments, both in the theory itself and in its relations with other areas. The contributions in this volume originate from the "Workshop on Singularities in Geometry, Topology, Foliations and Dynamics", held in Merida, Mexico, in December 2014, in celebration of Jose Seade's 60th Birthday. It is intended for researchers and graduate students interested in singularity theory and its impact on other fields.
