Part of Bernard Teisier¹s work is a substantial contribution to
equisingularity theory. In this talk I will discuss three of the many
inspirations his work has given me, and their role in my current approach
to the equisingularity of isolated singularities. The talk will use
determinantal singularities as an illustration of these ideas.

We prove that germs of analytic maps of complex analytic varieties can be made monomial by sequences of local blow ups of nonsingular analytic subvarieties in the domain and target along an arbitrary étoile. An étoile and the voûte étoilée is a generalization by Hironaka of valuations and the Zariski Riemann manifold to analytic spaces.
