This volume, dedicated to a Brazilian pioneer of singularities of mappings and founder of the singularity group in São Carlos, contains 17 papers presented at the seventh biennial workshop held from July 29 to August 2, 2002. Contributors discuss current trends and applications representing all the branches of singularities: equisingularity of sets and mapping, the geometry of singular complex analytic sets, singularities of mappings and their elimination, characteristic classes, applications to differential geometry, and differential equations and bifurcation theory. The participant list is included. Lacks an index. Annotation ©2004 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
