Singularity Theory from Modern Perspectives
​July - December 2021 
Chair
> Prof. Javier FERNANDEZ DE BOBADILLA
Basque Center for Applied Mathematics (BCAM)
Javier Fernandez de Bobadilla works in Singularity Theory and Algebraic Geometry. His interests lie in arc spaces, normal surface singularities, geometry of degenerating families (from a topological, geometric and cohomological viewpoints), intersection cohomology and its variations, Lipschitz geometry, characteristic classes of singular spaces and other aspects of geometry and topology of algebraic varieties.
