Abstract:

We study the recognition of -classes of multi-germs in families of corank-1 maps from n-space into n-space. From these recognition conditions we deduce certain geometric properties of bifurcation sets of such families of maps. As applications we give a formula for the number of -codimension-1 classes of corank-1 multi-germs from ℂn to ℂn and an upper bound for the number of stable projections of algebraic hypersurfaces in ℝn +1 into hyperplanes.
