Hyperbolic polynomials and multiparameter real analytic perturbation theory

Let $P(x,z)= z^d +\sum_{i=1}^{d}a_i(x)z^{d-i}$ be a polynomial, where $a_i$ are real analytic functions in an open subset $U$ of $\R^n$. If for any $x \in U$ the polynomial $z\mapsto P(x,z)$ has only real roots, then we can write those roots as locally lipschitz functions of $x$. Moreover, there exists a modification (a locally finite composition of blowing-ups with smooth centers) $σ: W \to U$ such that the roots of the corresponding polynomial $\tilde P(w,z) =P(σ(w),z), w\in W $, can be written locally as analytic functions of $w$. Let $A(x), x\in U$ be an analytic family of symmetric matrices, where $U$ is open in $\R^n$. Then there exists a modification $σ: W \to U$, such the corresponding family $\tilde A(w) =A(σ(w))$ can be locally diagonalized analytically (i.e. we can choose locally eigenvectors in an analytic way). This generalizes the Rellich's well known theorem (1937) for one-parameter families. Similarly for an analytic family $A(x), x\in U$ of antisymmetric matrices there exits a modification $σ$ such that we can find locally a basis of proper subspaces in an analytic way.

Equisingularity in $R^2$ As Morse Stability

Two seemingly unrelated problems are intimately connected. The first is the equsingularity problem in $\R^2$: For an analytic family $f_t:(\R^2,0)\rar (\R,0)$, when should it be called an ``equisingular deformation"? This amounts to finding a suitable trivialization condition (as strong as possible) and, of course, a criterion. The second is on the Morse stability. We define $\R_*$, which is $\R$ "enriched" with a class of infinitesimals. How to generalize the Morse Stability Theorem to polynomials over $\R_*$?

Isometry-invariant geodesics and nonpositive derivations of the cohomology

We introduce a new class of zero-dimensional weighted complete intersections, by abstracting the essential features of rational cohomology algebras of equal rank homogeneous spaces of compact connected Lie groups. We prove that, on a 1-connected closed manifold M whose rational cohomology algebra belongs to this class, every isometry has a non-trivial invariant geodesic, for any metric on M. We use rational surgery to construct large classes of new examples for which the above result may be applied.

On the Lojasiewicz exponent at infinity for polynomial functions

The Lojasiewicz exponent at infinity of an entire function measures of the infimal rate of growth of its gradient. The authors compute the Lojasiewicz exponents at infinity of the 3-variable complex polynomials x - 3 x^{2n+1} y^{2q} + 2 x^{3n+1} y^{3q} + y z
