This monograph presents a structured and conceptually unified study of upper triangular integer matrices and the rich family of structures they induce. Central objects include unimodular bilinear lattices, vanishing cycles, monodromy groups, braid group actions, and associated moduli spaces. These constructions naturally provide a common framework linking algebraic geometry, representation theory, singularity theory, and the theory of irregular meromorphic connections.
To a given matrix is associated a ℤ-lattice with a unimodular bilinear form (the Seifert form) and a triangular basis. This leads to even and odd intersection forms, reflections and transvections, monodromy groups, and corresponding vanishing cycles. Braid group actions generate orbits of distinguished bases and matrices, which in turn give rise to complex manifolds obtained by gluing Stokes regions.
General tools and results are developed throughout, with a systematic analysis of the cases of rank 2 and 3. Already in rank 3 a wide range of phenomena appears, illustrating the broader landscape. Classical situations related to Coxeter groups, generalized Cartan lattices, exceptional sequences, and isolated hypersurface singularities arise as special cases but represent only a small part of the theory. The book is intended for researchers and students working with integral upper triangular matrices and their induced structures.

About the Author
Claus Hertling is a Professor at the University of Mannheim. His research interests are in isolated hypersurface singularities and their moduli spaces, Frobenius manifolds, meromorphic connections and, more recently, integral matrices in the contexts of Stokes structures and monodromy.
Khadija Larabi obtained her PhD from the University of Mannheim. She works on algebraic structures induced by upper triangular integral matrices and on orders and full lattices in finite-dimensional commutative ℚ-algebras.

Information regarding the right of withdrawal
Statutory right to withdraw
You have the right to withdraw from this contract within 14 days without giving any reason.
The withdrawal period will expire after 14 days from the day on which you acquire, or a third party other than the carrier and indicated by you acquires, physical possession of the last good or the last lot or piece.
To exercise the right of withdrawal, electronically fill in and submit a clear statement on our website, under "My Purchases" in "My Account". We will communicate to you an acknowledgement of receipt of such a withdrawal on a durable medium (e.g. by e-mail) without delay.
To meet the withdrawal deadline, it is sufficient for you to send your communication concerning your exercise of the right of withdrawal before the withdrawal period has expired.
Effects of withdrawal
If you withdraw from this contract, we will reimburse to you all payments received from you, including the costs of delivery (except for the supplementary costs arising if you chose a type of delivery other than the least expensive type of standard delivery offered by us).
We may make a deduction from the reimbursement for loss in value of any goods supplied, if the loss is the result of unnecessary handling by you.
We will make the reimbursement without undue delay, and not later than 14 days after the day on which we are informed about your decision to withdraw from this contract.
We will make the reimbursement using the same means of payment as you used for the initial transaction, unless you have expressly agreed otherwise; in any event, you will not incur any fees as a result of such reimbursement.
We may withhold reimbursement until we have received the goods back, or you have supplied evidence of having sent back the goods, whichever is the earliest.
You shall send back the goods or hand them over to Revaluation Books, Hounslow, United Kingdom, without undue delay and in any event not later than 14 days from the day on which you communicate your withdrawal from this contract to us. The deadline is met if you send back the goods before the period of 14 days has expired. You will have to bear the direct cost of returning the goods. You are only liable for any diminished value of the goods resulting from the handling other than what is necessary to establish the nature, characteristics and functioning of the goods.
Exceptions to the right of withdrawal
The right of withdrawal does not apply to:
- The delivery of newspapers, journals or magazines with the exception of subscription contracts; and
- The supply of digital content which is not supplied on a tangible medium (e.g. on a CD or DVD) if you accepted when you placed your order that we could start to deliver it, and that you could not withdraw once delivery had started.
Shipping terms
