Feb 18, 2015 at 9:39 comment added Jochen Wengenroth The standard references to this subject are Malgrange's book Ideals of differentiable functions and the one of Tougeron Ideaux de fonctions differentiables. In higher dimensions things become quite complicated: The function $f(x,y)=y^2 - \exp(-1/x^2)$ generates a closed ideal in $\mathscr E(\mathbb R^2)=C^\infty(\mathbb R^2)$ (i.e., $\lbrace fg: g\in\mathscr E(\mathbb R^2)\rbrace$ is closed) whereas $g(x,y)=y^2 + \exp(-1/x^2)$ does not (this is example 4.8 in Tougeron's book).
