On {\L}ojasiewicz Inequalities and the Effective Putinar's Positivstellensatz

The representation of positive polynomials on a semi-algebraic set in terms of sums of squares is a central question in real algebraic geometry, which the Positivstellensatz answers. In this paper, we study the effective Putinar's Positivestellensatz on a compact basic semi-algebraic set $S$ and provide a new proof and new improved bounds on the degree of the representation of positive polynomials. These new bounds involve a parameter $\epsilon$ measuring the non-vanishing of the positive function, the constant $\mathfrak{c}$ and exponent $L$ of a {\L}ojasiewicz inequality for the semi-algebraic distance function associated to the inequalities $\mathbf{g} = (g_1, \dots , g_r)$ defining $S$. They are polynomial in $\mathfrak{c}$ and $\epsilon^{-1}$ with an exponent depending only on $L$. We analyse in details the {\L}ojasiewicz inequality when the defining inequalities $\mathbf g$ satisfy the Constraint Qualification Condition. We show that, in this case, the {\L}ojasiewicz exponent $L$ is $1$ and we relate the {\L}ojasiewicz constant $\mathfrak{c}$ with the distance of $\mathbf g$ to the set of singular systems.

Motivic, logarithmic, and topological Milnor fibrations

We compare the topological Milnor fibration and the motivic Milnor fibre of a regular complex function with only normal crossing singularities by introducing their common extension: the complete Milnor fibration. We give two equivalent constructions: the first one extending the classical Kato-Nakayama log-space, and the second one, more geometric, based on the real oriented multigraph construction, a version of the real oriented deformation to the normal cone. As an application, we recover A'Campo's model of the topological Milnor fibration, by quotienting the motivic Milnor fibration with suitable powers of $\mathbb{R}_{>0}$, and show that it determines the classical motivic Milnor fibre. We also give precise formulae expressing how the introduced objects change under blowings-up. As an application, we show that the motivic Milnor fibre is well-defined as an element of a suitable Grothendieck ring without requiring that the Lefschetz motive be invertible.

Zariski's dimensionality type of singularities. case of dimensionality type 2

In the 1970s O. Zariski introduced a general theory of equisingularity for algebroid and algebraic hypersurfaces over an algebraically closed field of characteristic zero. His theory builds up on understanding the dimensionality type of hypersurface singularities, notion defined recursively by considering the discriminants loci of successive "generic" corank 1 projections. The theory of singularities of dimensionality type 1, that is the ones appearing generically in codimension 1, was developed by Zariski in his foundational papers on equisingular families of plane curve singularities. In this paper we completely settle the case of dimensionality type 2, by studying Zariski equisingular families of surfaces singularities, not necessarily isolated, in the three-dimensional space.

Lipschitz Stratification of Complex Hypersurfaces in Codimension 2

We show that the Zariski canonical stratification of complex hypersurfaces is locally bi-Lipschitz trivial along the strata of codimension two. More precisely, we study Zariski equisingular families of surface, not necessarily isolated, singularities in $\mathbb{C}^3$. We show that a natural stratification of such a family given by the singular set and the generic family of polar curves provides a Lipschitz stratification in the sense of Mostowski. In particular, such families are bi-Lipschitz trivial by trivializations obtained by integrating Lipschitz vector fields.

Algebraic varieties are homeomorphic to varieties defined over number fields

We show that every affine or projective algebraic variety defined over the field of real or complex numbers is homeomorphic to a variety defined over the field of algebraic numbers. We construct such a homeomorphism by choosing a small deformation of the coefficients of the original equations. This method is based on the properties of Zariski equisingular families of varieties. Moreover we construct an algorithm, that, given a system of equations defining a variety $V$, produces a system of equations with algebraic coefficients of a variety homeomorphic to $V$

Arc spaces, motivic measure and Lipschitz geometry of real algebraic sets

We investigate connections between Lipschitz geometry of real algebraic varieties and properties of their arc spaces. For this purpose we develop motivic integration in the real algebraic set-up. We construct a motivic measure on the space of real analytic arcs. We use this measure to define a real motivic integral which admits a change of variables formula not only for the birational but also for generically one-to-one Nash maps. As a consequence we obtain an inverse mapping theorem which holds for continuous rational maps and, more generally, for generically arc-analytic maps. These maps appeared recently in the classification of singularities of real analytic function germs. Finally, as an application, we characterize in terms of the motivic measure, germs of arc-analytic homeomorphism between real algebraic varieties which are bi-Lipschitz for the inner metric.

Multiparameter perturbation theory of matrices and linear operators

We show that a normal matrix $A$ with coefficient in $\mathbb C[[X]]$, $X=(X_1, \ldots, X_n)$, can be diagonalized, provided the discriminant $\Delta_A $ of its characteristic polynomial is a monomial times a unit. The proof is an adaptation of the algorithm of proof of Abhyankar-Jung Theorem. As a corollary we obtain the singular value decomposition for an arbitrary matrix $A$ with coefficient in $\mathbb C[[X]]$ under a similar assumption on $\Delta_{AA^*} $ and $\Delta_{A^*A} $. We also show real versions of these results, i.e. for coefficients in $\mathbb R[[X]]$, and deduce several results on multiparameter perturbation theory for normal matrices with real analytic, quasi-analytic, or Nash coefficients.

Selections of bounded variation for roots of smooth polynomials

We prove that the roots of a smooth monic polynomial with complex-valued coefficients defined on a bounded Lipschitz domain $\Omega$ in $\mathbb R^m$ admit a parameterization by functions of bounded variation uniformly with respect to the coefficients. This result is best possible in the sense that discontinuities of the roots are in general unavoidable due to monodromy. We show that the discontinuity set can be chosen to be a finite union of smooth hypersurfaces. On its complement the parameterization of the roots is of optimal Sobolev class $W^{1,p}$ for all $1 \le p < \frac{n}{n-1}$, where $n$ is the degree of the polynomial. All discontinuities are jump discontinuities. For all this we require the coefficients to be of class $C^{k-1,1}(\overline \Omega)$, where $k$ is a positive integer depending only on $n$ and $m$. The order of differentiability $k$ is not optimal. However, in the case of radicals, i.e., for the solutions of the equation $Z^r = f$, where $f$ is a complex-valued function and $r\in \mathbb R_{>0}$, we obtain optimal uniform bounds.

Global smoothing of a subanalytic set

We give rather simple answers to two long-standing questions in real-analytic geometry, on global smoothing of a subanalytic set, and on transformation of a proper real-analytic mapping to a mapping with equidimensional fibres by global blowings-up of the target. These questions are related: a positive answer to the second can be used to reduce the first to the simpler semianalytic case. We show that the second question has a negative answer, in general, and that the first problem nevertheless has a positive solution.

Validity proof of Lazard's method for CAD construction

In 1994 Lazard proposed an improved method for cylindrical algebraic decomposition (CAD). The method comprised a simplified projection operation together with a generalized cell lifting (that is, stack construction) technique. For the proof of the method's validity Lazard introduced a new notion of valuation of a multivariate polynomial at a point. However a gap in one of the key supporting results for his proof was subsequently noticed. In the present paper we provide a complete validity proof of Lazard's method. Our proof is based on the classical parametrized version of Puiseux's theorem and basic properties of Lazard's valuation. This result is significant because Lazard's method can be applied to any finite family of polynomials, without any assumption on the system of coordinates. It therefore has wider applicability and may be more efficient than other projection and lifting schemes for CAD.

Moser's theorem on manifolds with corners

Moser's theorem (1965) states that the diffeomorphism group of a compact manifold acts transitively on the space of all smooth positive densities with fixed volume. Here we describe the extension of this result to manifolds with corners. In particular we obtain Moser's theorem on simplices. The proof is based on Banyaga's paper (1974), where Moser's theorem is proven for manifolds with boundary. A cohomological interpretation of Banyaga's operator is given, which allows a proof of Lefschetz duality using differential forms.

Higher order approximation of analytic sets by topologically equivalent algebraic sets

It is known that every germ of an analytic set is homeomorphic to the germ of an algebraic set. In this paper we show that the homeomorphism can be chosen in such a way that the analytic and algebraic germs are tangent with any prescribed order of tangency. Moreover, the space of arcs contained in the algebraic germ approximates the space of arcs contained in the analytic one, in the sense that they are identical up to a prescribed truncation order.

Optimal Sobolev regularity of roots of polynomials

We study the regularity of the roots of complex univariate polynomials whose coefficients depend smoothly on parameters. We show that any continuous choice of the roots of a $C^{n-1,1}$-curve of monic polynomials of degree $n$ is locally absolutely continuous with locally $p$-integrable derivatives for every $1 \le p < n/(n-1)$, uniformly with respect to the coefficients. This result is optimal: in general, the derivatives of the roots of a smooth curve of monic polynomials of degree $n$ are not locally $n/(n-1)$-integrable, and the roots may have locally unbounded variation if the coefficients are only of class $C^{n-1,\alpha}$ for $\alpha <1$. We also prove a generalization of Ghisi and Gobbino's higher order Glaeser inequalities. We give three applications of the main results: local solvability of a system of pseudo-differential equations, a lifting theorem for mappings into orbit spaces of finite group representations, and a sufficient condition for multi-valued functions to be of Sobolev class $W^{1,p}$ in the sense of Almgren.

Lifting differentiable curves from orbit spaces

Let $\rho : G \rightarrow \operatorname{O}(V)$ be a real finite dimensional orthogonal representation of a compact Lie group, let $\sigma = (\sigma_1,\ldots,\sigma_n) : V \to \mathbb R^n$, where $\sigma_1,\ldots,\sigma_n$ form a minimal system of homogeneous generators of the $G$-invariant polynomials on $V$, and set $d = \max_i \operatorname{deg} \sigma_i$. We prove that for each $C^{d-1,1}$-curve $c$ in $\sigma(V) \subseteq \mathbb R^n$ there exits a locally Lipschitz lift over $\sigma$, i.e., a locally Lipschitz curve $\overline c$ in $V$ so that $c = \sigma \circ \overline c$, and we obtain explicit bounds for the Lipschitz constant of $\overline c$ in terms of $c$. Moreover, we show that each $C^d$-curve in $\sigma(V)$ admits a $C^1$-lift. For finite groups $G$ we deduce a multivariable version and some further results.

Regular Covers for Open Relatively Compact Subanalytic Sets

Let $U$ be an open relatively compact subanalytic subset of a real analytic manifold. We show that there exists a finite linear covering (in the sense of Guillermou and Schapira) of $U$ by subanalytic open subsets of $U$ homeomorphic to a unit ball. We also show that the algebra of open relatively compact subanalytic subsets of a real analytic manifold is generated by subsets subanalytically and bi-lipschitz homeomorphic to a unit ball.
