  2. Singular point of a curve - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Singular_point_of_a_curve

    A curve with a triple point at the origin: x(t) = sin(2t) + cos(t), y(t) = sin(t) + cos(2t) In general, if all the terms of degree less than k are 0, and at least one term of degree k is not 0 in f, then curve is said to have a multiple point of order k or a k-ple point.

  3. Singularity function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Singularity_function

    Singularity functions are a class of discontinuous functions that contain singularities, i.e., they are discontinuous at their singular points.Singularity functions have been heavily studied in the field of mathematics under the alternative names of generalized functions and distribution theory.

  4. Resolution of singularities - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Resolution_of_singularities

    Repeatedly blowing up the singular points of a curve will eventually resolve the singularities. The main task with this method is to find a way to measure the complexity of a singularity and to show that blowing up improves this measure. There are many ways to do this. For example, one can use the arithmetic genus of the curve.

  5. Singular point of an algebraic variety - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Singular_point_of_an...

    Points of V that are not singular are called non-singular or regular. It is always true that almost all points are non-singular, in the sense that the non-singular points form a set that is both open and dense in the variety (for the Zariski topology, as well as for the usual topology, in the case of varieties defined over the complex numbers).

  6. Singularity (mathematics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Singularity_(mathematics)

    One could define the x-axis as a tangent at this point, but this definition can not be the same as the definition at other points. In fact, in this case, the x -axis is a "double tangent." For affine and projective varieties , the singularities are the points where the Jacobian matrix has a rank which is lower than at other points of the variety.

  7. Regular singular point - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Regular_singular_point

    Point a is an ordinary point when functions p 1 (x) and p 0 (x) are analytic at x = a. Point a is a regular singular point if p 1 (x) has a pole up to order 1 at x = a and p 0 has a pole of order up to 2 at x = a. Otherwise point a is an irregular singular point.

  9. Pinch point (mathematics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pinch_point_(mathematics)

    The pinch point (in this case the origin) is a limit of normal crossings singular points (the -axis in this case). These singular points are intimately related in the sense that in order to resolve the pinch point singularity one must blow-up the whole v {\displaystyle v} -axis and not only the pinch point.
