This paper is a survey on arc spaces, a recent topic in algebraic geometry and singularity theory. The geometry of the arc space of an algebraic variety yields several new geometric invariants and brings new light to some classical invariants.

Abstract.For a certain class of varieties X, including the toric surfaces, we derive a formula for the valuation dX on the arc space of a smooth ambient space Y, in terms of an embedded resolution of

THE SCHEME OF FORMAL CURVES ON AN ABELIAN VARIETY
Let X be an abelian variety defined over an algebraically closed field k of arbitrary characteristic. The aim of this note is to show that the scheme , which parametrizes germs of formal curves on X,
A Remark on Higher Homotopy Sheaves of Derived Arc Spaces
In their work, \cite{GR}, Gaitsgory and Rozenblyum introduce a derived version of the well-studied arc spaces of classical algebraic geometry. They observe that these derived spaces do not differ
Standard monomials and invariant theory for arc spaces I: general linear group

This is the first in a series of papers on standard monomial theory and invariant theory of arc spaces. For any algebraically closed field K , we construct a standard monomial basis for the arc space
Motivic Milnor Fibers of Plane Curve Singularities
We compute the motivic Milnor fiber of a complex plane curve singularity in an inductive and combinatoric way using the extended simplified resolution graph. The method introduced in this article has
Formal and rigid geometry: an intuitive introduction, and some applications
We give an informal introduction to formal and rigid geometry over complete discrete valuation rings, and we discuss some applications in algebraic and arithmetic geometry and singularity theory,
Singularity invariants related to Milnor fibers: survey
This brief survey of some singularity invariants related to Milnor fibers should serve as a quick guide to references. We attempt to place things into a wide geometric context while leaving

To an arbitrary variety over a field of characteristic zero, we associate a complex of Chow motives, which is, up to homotopy, unique and bounded. We deduce that any variety has a natural Euler
