It turns out there are only two new singularities (in comparison with the previous dimension case) which appear at separate points of the boundary of the convex hull and are not removed by a small perturbation of the original hypersurface. The first singularity does not contain functional, but has at least nine continuous number invariants. A normal form which does not contain invariants at all is found for the second singularity.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2003-02-14T18:13:17.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "58K40", "52A20" ], "keywords": [ "convex hull", "generic compact smooth hypersurface", "four-dimensional affine space", "second singularity", "contain invariants" ], "tags": [ "journal article" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 0, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "2003math......2173B" } } }
