In this paper, the classification of hypersurfaces in
with an isolated singularity are studied. If the singularity is of type Ak, under certain restrictions of the degree of the hypersurfaces, a classification up to homeomorphism, which is a diffeomorphism on the nonsingular part, is obtained. Examples of cubic hypersurfaces with an A5-singularity are constructed.
