Abstract：

   For germs of holomorphic functions f: C^m+1→C, g: Cⁿ⁺¹→C having an isolated critical point at 0 with value 0, the classical Thom-Sebastiani theorem describes the vanishing cycles group Φ^m+n+1(f⊕g) (and its monodromy) as a tensor product Φ^m(f)⊗Φⁿ(g), where (f⊕g)(x,y)=f(x)+g(y), x=(x₀,...,x_m), y=(y₀,...,y_n). I will discuss algebraic variants and generalizations of this result over fields of any characteristic, where the tensor product is replaced by a certain local convolution product, as suggested by Deligne. The main theorem is a Künneth formula for RΨ in the framework of Deligne's theory of nearby cycles over general bases.
