Conference "Singularity Theory and Regular Stratifications" (On the occasion of the retirement of David Trotman)
The Theory of Regular Stratifications, a branch of the theory of singularities, was introduced by H. Whitney, J. Mather and R. Thom (Fields Medalist in 1958) in the 1960's to study and classify the singularities of smooth maps. Since then, this field has been the subject of in-depth and fruitful research by French and international mathematical schools. All the mathematical descendants of D. Trotman (what René Thom had defined 'The Trotman's school') will participate in this event as well as the best French and international specialists with whom they collaborate.
The main research themes of this conference will focus on the Topology of Singular Spaces and the theory of regular stratifications
The conference will take place at Marseille (FRUMAM) as well as online.
