Felix Klein's paper on real flexes vindicated

Felice Ronga (1998)

Banach Center Publications

In a paper written in 1876 [4], Felix Klein gave a formula relating the number of real flexes of a generic real plane projective curve to the number of real bitangents at non-real points and the degree, which shows in particular that the number of real flexes cannot exceed one third of the total number of flexes. We show that Klein's arguments can be made rigorous using a little of the theory of singularities of maps, justifying in particular his resort to explicit examples.

Finiteness problems on Nash manifolds and Nash sets

José F. Fernando, José Manuel Gamboa, Jesús M. Ruiz (2014)

Journal of the European Mathematical Society

We study here several finiteness problems concerning affine Nash manifolds M and Nash subsets X . Three main results are: (i) A Nash function on a semialgebraic subset Z of M has a Nash extension to an open semialgebraic neighborhood of Z in M , (ii) A Nash set X that has only normal crossings in M can be covered by finitely many open semialgebraic sets U equipped with Nash diffeomorphisms ( u 1 , , u m ) : U m such that U X = { u 1 u r = 0 } , (iii) Every affine Nash manifold with corners N is a closed subset of an affine Nash manifold...
