Research Abstract

We established a global and concrete simplification method for differentiable maps using geometric topology and discovered that 4-dimensional manifolds always have good structures. We also formulated for the first time the cobordism of maps of manifolds with boundary, which is significant for creating a new research area. Furthermore, we found that nonsingular fibers and singular sets are sometimes not linked, and our application of this discovery to the theory of submersions is a remarkable example of the versatility of the singularity theory. We have also reformulated the theory of dual flat structures, which is important in information geometry, so that it can be applied to singular models as well, and has promoted the construction of next-generation catastrophe theory for applications in various scientific fields.
