The first part of this thesis is devoted to the theory of singularities of mappings. We obtain formulas for an important analytical invariant, the image Milnor number of a map-germ. The first contribution is a version of the Lê-Greuel formula for the image Milnor number for corank 1 map-germs, which gives a recursive method to compute it. This work is in collaboration with my Ph.D. supervisor J. J. Nuño. In the second work of this thesis, we obtain two formulas for the image Milnor number for weighted-homogeneous map-germs for dimensions four and five. These formulas are obtained by combining the theory of characteristic classes of singular spaces with a recursive method through examples of singularities. This work is in collaboration with Prof. G. Peñafort. The last part which composes the main work of this Ph.D. thesis is the proof for projective varieties of the Brasselet-Schürmann-Yokura conjecture. This conjecture is within the theory of characteristic classes of singular spaces. Characteristic classes of singular varieties are homology classes generalizing the classical cohomological characteristic classes of manifolds. The conjecture states that two different characteristic classes coincide for compact complex algebraic varieties that are rational homology manifolds. This work is in collaboration with my Ph.D. supervisor J. Fernández de Bobadilla. This conjecture is the characteristic class version for rational homology manifolds of the famous Hodge Index Theorem which computes the signature of a compact complex manifold in terms of Hodge numbers. en_US dc.format application/pdf en_US dc.language.iso eng en_US dc.rights Reconocimiento-NoComercial-CompartirIgual 3.0 España en_US dc.rights.uri http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-sa/3.0/es/ en_US dc.title Some contributions to the theory of singularities and their characteristic classes en_US dc.type info:eu-repo/semantics/doctoralThesis en_US dc.rights.accessRights info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess en_US dc.type.hasVersion info:eu-repo/semantics/submittedVersion en_US
