| Aug 24, 2010 at 11:43 | comment | added | Thierry Zell | Related: Lojasiewicz was led to study real semi-analytic, then subanalytic sets, to solve -- at the same time as Hormander -- the problem of divsion (of distributions by analytic functions). | |
| Aug 24, 2010 at 2:29 | comment | added | Dan Ramras | This result underlies the proof that real algebraic varieties are triangulable, which is useful in many places. If you're a topologist, it's great to know that anything cut out by polynomial equations is actually a space you know how to deal with! | |
