Normal forms of functions with degenerate singularities on surfaces equipped with semi-free circle actions

This article is devoted to the study of a certain class of smooth circle-valued functions on a cylinder $S^1\times [0,1]$, a torus $T^2$, a disk $D^2$ and a sphere $S^2$ which is a generalization of Morse-Bott functions without saddles. We established a "normal form" for functions from this class, namely, we proved that any such function $f$ can be presented in the form $f = \varkappa\circ f_0\circ h^{-1}$, where $f_0$ is the ``simplest'' Morse function on the given surface for some diffeomorphism $h$ and a smooth function $\varkappa$ satisfying some natural conditions.

Homotopy type of stabilizers of smooth functions with non-isolated singularities on surfaces

The paper is devoted to the study of homotopy properties of stabilizers of smooth functions on oriented surfaces, i.e., groups of diffeomorphisms of surfaces preserving a given function. For some class of smooth functions which is a generalization of the class of Morse-Bott functions on oriented surfaces, the homotopy type of the connected component of the identity map of the stabilizer is completely described.

Deformations of circle-valued functions on $2$-torus

In this paper we give an algebraic description of fundamental groups of orbits of circle-valued smooth functions from some subspace of the space of smooth functions with isolated singularities on $2$-torus $T^2$ with respect to the action of the group of diffeomorphisms of $T^2$.

Automorphisms of Kronrod-Reeb graphs of Morse functions on 2-torus

This paper is devoted to the study of special subgroups of the automorphism groups of Kronrod-Reeb graphs of a Morse functions on $2$-torus $T^2$ which arise from the action of diffeomorphisms preserving a given Morse function on $T^2$. In this paper we give a full description of such classes of groups.

Deformations of smooth functions on $2$-torus

Let $f $ be a Morse function on a smooth compact surface $M$ and $\mathcal{S}'(f)$ be a group of $f$-preserving diffeomorphisms of $M$ which are isotopic to the identity map. Let also $G(f)$ be a group of automorphisms of the graph of $f$ induced by elements from $\mathcal{S}'(f)$, and $Δ'$ be a subgroup of $\mathcal{S}'(f)$ of diffeomorphisms which trivially act on the graph of $f$ and are isotopic to the identity map. The group $π_0\mathcal{S}'(f)$ can be viewed as an analogue of a mapping class group for $f$-preserved diffeomorphisms of $M$. Groups $π_0Δ'(f)$ and $G(f)$ can be viewed as groups which encode `combinatorially trivial' and `combinatorially nontrivial' counterparts of $π_0\mathcal{S}'(f)$ respectively. In the paper we compute groups $π_0\mathcal{S}'(f)$, $G(f)$, and $π_0Δ'(f)$ for Morse functions on $2$-torus $T^2$.

Deformations of smooth function on $2$-torus whose KR-graph is a tree

Let $f:T^2\to \mathbb{R}$ be Morse function on $2$-torus $T^2,$ and $\mathcal{O}(f)$ be the orbit of $f$ with respect to the right action of the group of diffeomorphisms $\mathcal{D}(T^2)$ on $C^{\infty}(T^2)$. Let also $\mathcal{O}_f(f,X)$ be a connected component of $\mathcal{O}(f,X)$ which contains $f.$ In the case when Kronrod-Reeb graph of $f$ is a tree we obtain the full description of $π_1\mathcal{O}_f(f).$ This result also holds for more general class of smooth functions $f:T^2\to \mathbb{R}$ which have the following property: for each critical point $z$ of $f$ the germ $f$ of $z$ is smoothly equivalent to some homogeneous polynomial $\mathbb{R}^2\to \mathbb{R}^2$ without multiple points.

Actions of finite groups and smooth functions on surfaces

Let $f:M\to \mathbb{R}$ be a Morse function on a smooth closed surface, $V$ be a connected component of some critical level of $f$, and $\mathcal{E}_V$ be its atom. Let also $\mathcal{S}(f)$ be a stabilizer of the function $f$ under the right action of the group of diffeomorphisms $\mathrm{Diff}(M)$ on the space of smooth functions on $M,$ and $\mathcal{S}_V(f) = \{h\in\mathcal{S}(f)\,| h(V) = V\}.$ The group $\mathcal{S}_V(f)$ acts on the set $π_0\partial \mathcal{E}_V$ of connected components of the boundary of $\mathcal{E}_V.$ Therefore we have a homomorphism $ϕ:\mathcal{S}(f)\to \mathrm{Aut}(π_0\partial \mathcal{E}_V)$. Let also $G = ϕ(\mathcal{S}(f))$ be the image of $\mathcal{S}(f)$ in $\mathrm{Aut}(π_0\partial \mathcal{E}_V).$ Suppose that the inclusion $\partial \mathcal{E}_V\subset M\setminus V$ induces a bijection $π_0 \partial \mathcal{E}_V\toπ_0(M\setminus V).$ Let $H$ be a subgroup of $G.$ We present a sufficient condition for existence of a section $s:H\to \mathcal{S}_V(f)$ of the homomorphism $ϕ,$ so, the action of $H$ on $\partial \mathcal{E}_V$ lifts to the $H$-action on $M$ by $f$-preserving diffeomorphisms of $M$. This result holds for a larger class of smooth functions $f:M\to \mathbb{R}$ having the following property: for each critical point $z$ of $f$ the germ of $f$ at $z$ is smoothly equivalent to a homogeneous polynomial $\mathbb{R}^2\to \mathbb{R}$ without multiple linear factors.

Smooth functions on 2-torus whose Kronrod-Reeb graph contains a cycle

Let $f:M\to \mathbb{R}$ be a Morse function on a connected compact surface $M$, and $\mathcal{S}(f)$ and $\mathcal{O}(f)$ be respectively the stabilizer and the orbit of $f$ with respect to the right action of the group of diffeomorphisms $\mathcal{D}(M)$. In a series of papers the first author described the homotopy types of connected components of $\mathcal{S}(f)$ and $\mathcal{O}(f)$ for the cases when $M$ is either a $2$-disk or a cylinder or $χ(M)<0$. Moreover, in two recent papers the authors considered special classes of smooth functions on $2$-torus $T^2$ and shown that the computations of $π_1\mathcal{O}(f)$ for those functions reduces to the cases of $2$-disk and cylinder. In the present paper we consider another class of Morse functions $f:T^2\to\mathbb{R}$ whose KR-graphs have exactly one cycle and prove that for every such function there exists a subsurface $Q\subset T^2$, diffeomorphic with a cylinder, such that $π_1\mathcal{O}(f)$ is expressed via the fundamental group $π_1\mathcal{O}(f|_{Q})$ of the restriction of $f$ to $Q$. This result holds for a larger class of smooth functions $f:T^2\to \mathbb{R}$ having the following property: for every critical point $z$ of $f$ the germ of $f$ at $z$ is smoothly equivalent to a homogeneous polynomial $\mathbb{R}^2\to \mathbb{R}$ without multiple factors.

Orbits of smooth functions on 2-torus and their homotopy types

Let $f:T^2\to\mathbb{R}$ be a Morse function on $2$-torus $T^2$ such that its Kronrod-Reeb graph $Γ(f)$ has exactly one cycle, i.e. it is homotopy equivalent to $S^1$. Under some additional conditions we describe a homotopy type of the orbit of $f$ with respect to the action of the group of diffeomorphism of $T^2$. This result holds for a larger class of smooth functions $f:T^2\to\mathbb{R}$ having the following property: for every critical point $z$ of $f$ the germ of $f$ at $z$ is smoothly equivalent to a homogeneous polynomial $\mathbb{R}^2\to\mathbb{R}$ without multiple factors.
