Critical Points of Functions on Singular Spaces
David B. Massey
Abstract
We compare and contrast various notions of the "critical locus" of a complex analytic function on a singular space. After choosing a topological variant as our primary notion of the critical locus, we justify our choice by generalizing Lê and Saito's result that constant Milnor number implies that Thom's af condition is satisfied.
