The study of real singularities presents many difficult open questions and is nowadays an active field of research. It includes the following main topics: semi-algebraic geometry, 0-minimal structures and model theory, singularities in differential geometry, caustics and wavefronts.
Besides these theoretical aspects, the theory of real singularities has many applications in other fields such as optimization and control theory, robotics, image reconstruction, vision theory etc. This workshop will bring together the world’s best specialists in real singularities and their applications who will present the latest progress and developments in all these subjects. The conference will focus on the following topics: 1. Semi-algebraic geometry in a broad sense: blow-analytic equivalence, topological and motivic invariants of semi-algebraic sets, 0-minimal geometry and model theory, stratifications. |
