Summary

Bringing together two fundamental texts from Frédéric Pham’s research on singular integrals, the first part of this book focuses on topological and geometrical aspects while the second explains the analytic approach. Using notions developed by J. Leray in the calculus of residues in several variables and R. Thom’s isotopy theorems, Frédéric Pham’s foundational study of the singularities of integrals lies at the interface between analysis and algebraic geometry, culminating in the Picard-Le…

Critics Review

From the reviews:

“The book under review is the author’s translation of his own recent monograph … . The book is written in a clear didactic style, almost all topics are illustrated by many examples together with nice pictures, non-formal remarks and comments; it can be recommended to graduate students as well as to mathematicians and physicists who are interested in the studies of singularities of integrals and applications.” (Aleksandr G. Aleksandrov, Zentralblatt MATH, Vol. 1223, 2011)

“Singularities of Integrals is a very valuable book in that it deals with serious and important material, and does so in a way accessible to some one wanting to get into the field … . the target student should really have at least a solid advanced undergraduate background in topology and differential geometry … and a bit of sheaf theory and hard analysis, to boot. Modulo these prerequisites it’s all good stuff.” (Michael Berg, The Mathematical Association of America, July, 2011)
