We study the topological K-equivalence of function-germs (ℝn, 0) → (ℝ, 0). We present some special classes of piece-wise linear functions and prove that they are normal forms for equivalence classes with respect to topological K-equivalence for definable functions-germs. For the case n = 2 we present polynomial models for analytic function-germs.
We present a complete bi-Lipschitz classification of germs of semialgebraic curves (semialgebraic sets of the dimension one). For this purpose we introduce the so-called Hölder Semicomplex, a bi-Lipschitz invariant. Hölder Semicomplex is the collection of all first exponents of Newton-Puiseux expansions, for all pairs of branches of a curve. We prove that two germs of curves are bi-Lipschitz equivalent if and only if the corresponding Hölder Semicomplexes are isomorphic. We also prove that any Hölder...
