Tropical and Logarithmic Techniques for the Study of Milnor Fibers - Lecture 1

Explore a detailed lecture on combining local tropical geometry and logarithmic geometry tools to examine Milnor fiber structures in smoothings of isolated complex singularities. Delve into the collaborative paper "The Milnor fiber conjecture of Neumann and Wahl, and its proof," authored with Marıa Angelica Cueto and Dmitry Stepanov. Recorded during the thematic meeting "Logarithmic and non-archimedean methods in Singularity Theory" at the Centre International de Rencontres Mathématiques in Marseille, France, access this mathematical discourse through CIRM's Audiovisual Mathematics Library, complete with chapter markers, keywords, abstracts, bibliographies, and Mathematics Subject Classification for enhanced learning navigation.
