Mar 30, 2016 at 11:18 comment added JonP Thank you for this very interesting answer. I suppose then that Gauss uses (but does not prove) the following true assertion : "For any compact $K$ of the plane, any branch of any plane real algebraic curve $\gamma$ that intersects the boundary of $K$ properly (in the sense that the curve is not included in $K$ or its complement), actually intersects it properly at least two times". Am I correct in saying that this is true and that this is proven in the reference Alexander Ostrowski ? Is that a classical result in the "modern" theory ? If so, where can I find it "easily" (in a textbok) ?
