| Research Abstract |
This research was focused on the geometry of curves and surfaces with singularities. We gave a useful criterion for A_k singular points on hypersurfaces, and applied it to the study of inflection points on hypersurfaces. This riterion enabled us to define A_k singularities of wave front without assuming the existence of an ambient space. In fact, we defined the notion "coherent tangent bundle", giving an intrinsic formulation for wave fronts and several other applications. Moreover, we investigated maximal surfaces in Lorentz-Minkowski space and constant mean curvature surfaces in de Sitter space, and constructed several interesting new examples with singularities but still having certain kind of completeness.
Additionally, the head investigator and coinvestigators held several workshops (both domestic and international), which related in many fruitful discussions with geometers studying relating fields.
