Is any singularity a subgerm of $(\mathbb{C}^n, 0)$?
I am studying singularity theory. I have often come across, in the literature, the sentence which says "let $(X,0) \subset (\mathbb{C}^n,0)$ be a singularity". Here a singularity is a ...

forms on singular spaces that can be integrated on an LCI
I'd like to characterize rational $k$-forms on a singular scheme $X$ which can be integrated on any (real) bounded submanifold that is locally LCI in $X$ in a real sense (i.e., which is the real ...

On Whitney's paper on real algebraic varieties
I had previously asked this question on math.stackexchange and did not receive an answer and so I decided to reword it and pose it here.
This question is based on Whitney's paper titled "...

Kähler-Einstein metrics on singular varieties
Let $X$ be a normal projective variety with klt singularities with numerically trivial canonical divisor $K_X$.
Does there always exist a Kähler-Einstein metric on $X$?

Topological Singularities in Affine Varieties
Let $X$ be an affine variety over $\mathbb{C}$. Let $x\in X$.
If $x$ is non-singular, then $x$ is locally holomorphic (in the Euclidean topology). See here for a relevant MO post.
By results of ...

Existence of meromorphic 2-forms over normal surface singularities
Let $(X,o)$ be an isolated normal surface singularity. Denote by $U:=X\backslash \{o\}$. I am looking for conditions on $(X,o)$ under which there exists a holomorphic section $\omega \in H^0(U, \Omega^...

resolution for the du Val's $(A_3)$-singularity
For the $A_m$-singularity, it can be viewed as the singular part of $\mathbb{C}^2/\mathbb{Z}_m$. The action of $\mathbb{Z}_m$ on $\mathbb{C}^2$ is defined as following
$$
\bar{1} \cdot (z,w) = (z e^{\...

A geometric characterization of smooth points of a complex algebraic variety
Let $X^m\subset \mathbb{C}^n$ be an irreducible $m$-dimensional complex algebraic subvariety. Let $\mathbb{C}^n$ be equipped with the standard Hermitian metric.
Fix an arbitrary point $p\in X$. Let $...

Whitney stratification and affine grassmanian
Let $G$ a simply connected group over $\mathbb{C}$ and $Gr:=G(\mathbb{C}((t)))/G(\mathbb{C}[[t]])$ the affine grassmannian. By Cartan decomposition we have a partition of stratas indexed by $\lambda\...

Normal form for a holomorphic Morse function
Similarly to Morse lemma, a holomorphic Morse function can be written, near a critical point, as $W_1^2+W_2^2+...+W_n^2+C$ , for well chosen coordinates $W_1,W_2,...,W_n$. I want to cite this result ...

Applications of Slope Stability
Ross and Thomas developed slope-stability of $(X,L)$ where $X$ is an $L$-polarised variety and $L$ is an ample line bundle, as an obstruction to K-stability of $(X,L)$.
