Singularities and computer algebra

A collection of essays that surveys major areas of singularity theory, with its main emphasis on the computational side of the field. Across its chapters, the book traces how these areas have evolved over many years and raises a number of unresolved questions for future work.

The chapters are written by a group of specialists: R. O. Buchweitz, Y. A. Drozd, W. Ebeling, H. A. Hamm, Le D. T., I. Luengo, F.-O. Schreyer, E. Shustin, J. H. M. Steenbrink, D. van Straten, B. Teissier and J. Wahl. It is aimed at researchers working in singularity theory, computer algebra, or closely related areas.
