Given an isolated analytic hypersurface singularity 0 ∈ X0 := {f(z) = 0} ⊂ C one can form the smoothing Xt = {f(z) = t} and the resolution X̂ → X0, obtained by (repeatedly) blowing up the origin. These two associated spaces have the same link – that is, the intersection S ∩ f(0) – and there is a smooth surgery which replaces the smoothing by the resolution, or vice-versa. Thinking of the smoothi...
