Gutierrez-Sotomayor Flows on Singular Surfaces

Abstract

In this work we address the realizability of a Lyapunov graph labeled with GS singularities, namely regular, cone, Whitney, double crossing and triple crossing singularities, as continuous flow on a singular closed $2$-manifold $\mathbf{M}$. Furthermore, the Euler characteristic is computed with respect to the types of GS singularities of the flow on $\mathbf{M}$. Locally, a complete classification theorem for minimal isolating blocks of GS singularities is presented in terms of the branched one manifolds that make up the boundary.
