A generalization of the Gauss-Lucas theorem

J. L. Díaz-Barrero, J. J. Egozcue (2008)

Czechoslovak Mathematical Journal

Given a set of points in the complex plane, an incomplete polynomial is defined as the one which has these points as zeros except one of them. The classical result known as Gauss-Lucas theorem on the location of zeros of polynomials and their derivatives is extended to convex linear combinations of incomplete polynomials. An integral representation of convex linear combinations of incomplete polynomials is also given.

A generalized sharp Whitney theorem for jets.

Charles Fefferman (2005)

Revista Matemática Iberoamericana

Suppose that, for each point x in a given subset E ⊂ Rn, we are given an m-jet f(x) and a convex, symmetric set σ(x) of m-jets at x. We ask whether there exist a function F ∈ Cm,w(Rn) and a finite constant M, such that the m-jet of F at x belongs to f(x) + Mσ(x) for all x ∈ E. We give a necessary and sufficient condition for the existence of such F, M, provided each σ(x) satisfies a condition that we call "Whitnet w-convexity".

A generic condition implying o-minimality for restricted C -functions

Olivier Le Gal (2010)

Annales de la faculté des sciences de Toulouse Mathématiques

We prove that the expansion of the real field by a restricted C -function is generically o-minimal. Such a result was announced by A. Grigoriev, and proved in a different way. Here, we deduce quasi-analyticity from a transcendence condition on Taylor expansions. This then implies o-minimality. The transcendance condition is shown to be generic. As a corollary, we recover in a simple way that there exist o-minimal structures that doesn’t admit analytic cell decomposition, and that there exist incompatible...
