In the context of algebraic geometry and the theory of singularities, an **elliptic singularity** refers to a specific type of isolated singularity that appears in complex hypersurfaces. More precisely, it typically arises in the context of singular points of algebraic varieties, particularly in three-dimensional space. Elliptic singularities are characterized by their local behavior resembling that of an elliptic curve.
