Algebraic surfaces | Singularity theory
In geometry, a pinch point or cuspidal point is a type of singular point on an algebraic surface. The equation for the surface near a pinch point may be put in the form where [4] denotes terms of degree 4 or more and is not a square in the ring of functions. For example the surface near the point , meaning in coordinates vanishing at that point, has the form above. In fact, if and then {} is a system of coordinates vanishing at then is written in the canonical form. The simplest example of a pinch point is the hypersurface defined by the equation called Whitney umbrella. The pinch point (in this case the origin) is a limit of normal crossings singular points (the -axis in this case). These singular points are intimately related in the sense that in order to resolve the pinch point singularity one must blow-up the whole -axis and not only the pinch point. (Wikipedia).

C72 What to do about the singular point
Now that we can calculate a solution at analytical points, what can we do about singular points. It turns out, not all singular points are created equal. The regular and irregular singular point.

Limit at a Point and the Pinching Theorem (Ch2 Pr14)
We use the Pinching Theorem to show that sin(x)/x approaches one as x goes to zero. This is Chapter 2 Problem 14 of the MATH1141 Calculus notes. Presented by Peter Brown of the School of Mathematics and Statistics, UNSW.
