Making sense of constant scalar curvature metric horns

Suppose we have a compact oriented surface $S$ and we remove a point $p$ on it. We could consider a neighboorhood $U$ of the puncture $p$, so that the points in this neighboorhood are described by ...

singular metric (with essential singularity)

Working on some $Q$-curvature equation in dimension $4$, I have been faced with singular metric of the form $(\mathbb{B}, e^{-1/\vert x\vert ^2} \vert dx\vert)$. I try to figure out to what those ...

Can we perturb a map $\mathbb{R}^n \to \mathbb{R}^n$ to have distinct singular values?

$\newcommand{\SO}[1]{\text{SO}(#1)}$ $\newcommand{\dist}{\operatorname{dist}}$ Let $\mathbb{D}^n$ be the closed $n$-dimensional unit ball, and let $f:\mathbb{D}^n \to \mathbb{R}^n$ be smooth. Set $$...

An upper bound for the number of singularities of a transversal vector field isometric to the zero field

Let $(M,g)$ be a Riemannian manifold. We equip the tangent bundle $TM$ with the Sasaki metric $g_s$. A smooth vector field $X:M \to TM$ is called a transversal vector field if $X(M)$ is transverse ...

Desingularization of the zero section of $TM$ as the manifold of singularities of the geodesic flow

However the method of "Blowing up of singularities" is initially introduced for an isolated singularity, but this method have been generalized to blowing up of a "Manifold of singularities"...
