Remarks on the singularity indices of Arnol'd and Berry
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 14 November 2011
Synopsis
We give a coordinate-free algebraic interpretation for singularity indices of quasihomogeneous functions and their unfoldings, as first exploited systematically by Berry in statistical optics. We also make some observations on geometric interpretation, on formulae for indices, and on the difficulties of rigorous treatment for non-quasihomogeneous functions.
