7 AMN invariants for angle-valued maps f : X S 1 For f : X S 1 a) critical values Cr(f ) := 0 θ 1 < θ 2,, < θ N < 2π b) barcodes 1 closed barcodes B c r (f ), [a, b] R 0 a, b Cr(f ) mod 2π regarded as a complex number z = e i(a+b)+(b a) C 2 open barcodes Br o (f ), (a, b), R 0 a, b Cr(f ) regarded as a complex number z = e i(a+b)+(a b) C 3 closed-open barcodes Br c,o (f ), [a, b) R 0 a, b Cr(f ) regarded as a complex number z = e i(a+b)+(b a) C 4 open-closed barcodes Br o,c (f ), (a, b] R 0 a, b Cr(f ) regarded as a complex number z = e i(a+b)+(a b) C c) Jordan cells J r (f ) := {(λ, k) λ κ \ 0, k Z 1 }

8 (λ, k) corresponds to a Jordan matrix T (λ, k) = λ λ λ λ (1) if k 2, and T (λ, 1) = (λ) if k = 1.

11 Results AMN-invariants Algebraic topology Theorem For f : X S 1 the following holds: 1 βr N (X, ξ f ) = Br c (f ) + Br 1 o (f ) 2 β r (X, (ξ f, u)) = βr N (X, ξ f ) + J r,u (f ) + J (r 1),1/u (f ) 3 β r (X) = βr N (X, ξ f ) + J r,u (f ) + J (r 1),1/u (f ) 4 [T r (ξ f )] = [ (λ,k) Jr (f )T (λ, k)] 5 For any θ S 1 we have β r (f 1 (θ)) (λ,n) J r (f ) n The Morse or the Novikov complex associated with f (up to isomorphism) w.r. to a field is completely determined by the closed, open and closed-open bar codes.

V = P 1 (0) C n, B P := {z 1, z 2, z N }, z i C n the bifurcation set Y := C n \ V, P : Y C \ 0, f 1 : Y R >0, f 1 (z) = P(z) f 2 : Y S 1, f 2 (z) := P(z)/ P(z) X R := {z C n z R} \ {z P(z) < 1/R}, P : C n \ P 1 (B) C \ B P is a smooth bundle.

Then 1 X R is a compact manifold with boundary, with Y \ IntX R is a collar of the boundary (X R ), i.e.y X R X R [0, ɛ) 2 the critical values of f 1 are { z i, z i B P \ 0} 3 the critical angles go f 2 are {argz i.z i B P \ 0} 4 If P is good at then f 2 : X R S 1 is a bundle. Good at means V is in general position at cf. L.Maxim (i.e., its projective completion of V intersects the hyperplane at infinity transversally) or is tame at cf. Nemethi-Zaharia.
