Description
Birkhauser Real And Complex Singularities Sao Carlos Workshop 2004 2006 Edition by Jean-Paul Brasselet Maria Aparecida Soares Ruas
This volume collects papers presented at the eighth Sao Carlos Workshop on Real and Complex Singularities held at the IML Marseille July 2004. Like the workshop this collection establishes the state of the art and presents new trends new ideas and new results in all of the branches of singularities. Real and Complex Singularities offers a useful summary of leading ideas in singularity theory and inspiration for future research.
