Singularities of affine equidistants: projections and contacts

Abstract: Abstract. Using standard methods for studying singularities of projections and of contacts, we classify the stable singularities of affine λ-equidistants of n-dimensional closed submanifolds of R q , for q ≤ 2n, whenever (2n, q) is a pair of nice dimensions [12].

“…The singularities and the geometry of affine λ-equidistants were very widely studied in many papers [1,5,6,8,13,17,33,40]. The envelope of affine diameters (the Centre Symmetry Set) was studied in [7,12,14,15,16].…”

“…The affine λ-equidistant is the set of points divided chords connecting points on M where tangent lines to M are parallel in the ratio λ. There are many papers considering affine equidistants, see [4,6,7,8,9,14,16,24,32,36]. In [4,14] the Wigner caustic is known as the area evolute and in [24] is known as the symmetry defect.…”

“…It leads to the construction of bi-dimensional improper affine spheres ( [3]). The Wigner caustic is an example of an affine λ-equidistant, which is the locus of points dividing chords connecting points on M with parallel tangent lines in a fixed ratio λ ( [5,8,10,23]).…”
