For a stratified mapping $f$, we consider the condition $\left(a_f\right)$ concerning the kernel of the differential of $f$. We show that the condition $\left(a_f\right)$ is equivalent to the condition $\left(a_f^S\right)$ which has a more obvious geometric content.

Let $A\subset {ℝ}^n$ be a set-germ at $0\in {ℝ}^n$ such that $0\in \overline{A}$. We say that $r\in S^{n-1}$ is a direction of $A$ at $0\in {ℝ}^n$ if there is a sequence of points $\left\{x_i\right\}\subset A\setminus \left\{0\right\}$ tending to $0\in {ℝ}^n$ such that $\frac{x_i}{\parallel x_i\parallel }\to r$ as $i\to \infty$. Let $D\left(A\right)$ denote the set of all directions of $A$ at $0\in {ℝ}^n$. Let $A,B\subset {ℝ}^n$ be subanalytic set-germs at $0\in {ℝ}^n$ such that $0\in \overline{A}\cap \overline{B}$. We study the problem of whether the dimension of the common direction set, $dim\left(D\right(A)\cap D(B\left)\right)$ is preserved by bi-Lipschitz homeomorphisms. We show that although it is not true in general, it is preserved if the images of $A$ and $B$ are also subanalytic. In particular...

To a given analytic function germ $f:({ℝ}^d,0)\to (ℝ,0)$, we associate zeta functions $Z_{f,+}$, $Z_{f,-}\in \mathbb{Z}\left[\left[T\right]\right]$, defined analogously to the motivic zeta functions of Denef and Loeser. We show that our zeta functions are rational and that they are invariants of the blow-analytic equivalence in the sense of Kuo. Then we use them together with the Fukui invariant to classify the blow-analytic equivalence classes of Brieskorn polynomials of two variables. Except special series of singularities our method classifies as well the blow-analytic...

In this paper we introduce the notion of modified Nash triviality for a family of zero sets of real polynomial map-germs as a desirable one. We first give a Nash isotopy lemma which is a useful tool to show triviality. Then, using it, we prove two types of modified Nash triviality theorem and a finite classification theorem for this triviality. These theorems strengthen similar topological results.

In a previous paper by Koike and Paunescu, it was introduced the notion of direction set for a subset of a Euclidean space, and it was shown that the dimension of the common direction set of two subanalytic subsets, called , is preserved by a bi-Lipschitz homeomorphism, provided that their images are also subanalytic. In this paper we give a generalisation of the above result to sets definable in an o-minimal structure on an arbitrary real closed field. More precisely, we first prove our main theorem...
