Curvature, singularities and projections of smooth maps

This work is an initial attempt to extend to many-parameter families of smooth functions on a smooth manifold, and projections of smooth maps into subspaces of higher dimension, the well-known inter relations, between the space of Morse function on a smooth manifold and the space of immersions of th...
