Abstract

In this paper, we classify generic isotropic map-germs arising from the symplectic reduction process relative to a hypersurface (i.e. one-dimensional reduction), up to symplectic equivalence in the C category. These models are open Whitney umbrellas of arbitrary dimension and their suspensions. These singularities appear in the generalized Cauchy problem for HamiltonJacobi equations.
