Singularities of Convex Improper AffineMaps
نویسنده
چکیده
In this paper we consider convex improper affine maps of the 3-dimensional affine space and classify their singularities. The main tool developed is a generating family with properties that closely resembles the area function for non-convex improper affine maps. Mathematics Subject Classification (2010). 53A15.

On the propagation of singularities of semi-convex functions
The paper deals with the propagation of singularities of semi-convex functions. We obtain lower bounds on the degree of the singularities and on the size of the singular set in a neighborhood of a singular point. These results apply to viscosity solutions of HamiltonJacobi-Bellman equations. In particular, they provide sufficient conditions for the propagation of singularities, depending only o...
متن کاملSingularities and equicontinuity of certain families of set-valued mappings
In the present paper we establish an abstract principle of condensation of singularities for families consisting of set-valued mappings. By using it as a basic tool, the condensation of the singularities and the equicontinuity of certain families of generalized convex set-valued mappings are studied. In particular, a principle of condensation of the singularities of families of closed convex pr...
متن کاملArea Distances of Convex Plane Curves and Improper Affine Spheres
Abstract. The area distance to a convex plane curve is an important concept in computer vision. In this paper we describe a strong link between area distances and improper affine spheres. This link makes possible a better understanding of both theories. The concepts of the theory of affine spheres lead to a new definition of an area distance on the outer part of a convex plane arc. Also, based ...
متن کاملRings of Singularities
This paper is a slightly revised version of an introduction into singularity theory corresponding to a series of lectures given at the ``Advanced School and Conference on homological and geometrical methods in representation theory'' at the International Centre for Theoretical Physics (ICTP), Miramare - Trieste, Italy, 11-29 January 2010. We show how to associate to a triple of posit...
متن کاملPlurisubharmonic functions and their singularities
The theme of these lectures is local and global properties of plurisubharmonic functions. First differential inequalities defining convex, subharmonic and plurisubharmonic functions are discussed. It is proved that the marginal function of a plurisubharmonic function is plurisubharmonic under certain hypotheses. We study the singularities of plurisubharmonic functions using methods from convexi...
