Let f : X → C and g : Y → C be analytic functions. Let π1 and π2 denote the projections of X×Y onto X and Y , respectively. In [S-T], Sebastiani and Thom prove that the cohomology of the Milnor fibre of f ◦ π1 + g ◦ π2 is isomorphic to the tensor product of the cohomologies of the Milnor fibres of f and g (with a shift in degrees); they prove this in the case where X and Y are smooth and f and ...

Abstract The main result includes as special cases on the one hand, Gerstenhaber–Rothaus theorem (1962) and its generalisation due to Nitsche Thom (2022) and, other Brodskii–Howie–Short (1980–1984) generalising Magnus’s Freiheitssatz (1930).

Communal lands and natural resources in rural Cambodia have transformed over the past 30 years as country attempts to transition from conflict liberal democracy integrates into global agricultural value chains. We find that gender relations are changing a result of land privatization ensuing social ecological crises production reproduction. The forest has become space for articulation new mascu...

Cassava has become a ‘must have’ crop for many Cambodian smallholders; yet, the market is volatile and yields are uneven. Drawing on long-term fieldwork in Kampong Thom Ratanakiri provinces, we analyse how farmers cope with volatility. We argue that multiple pathways have emerged: some ceased producing cassava; expanded production; while most engage ‘ambivalent repeasantisation’, striving to ga...
