Jul 11, 2020 at 9:40 comment added Liviu Nicolaescu For a postive integer $n$ denote by $P_n$ the vector space of polynomials of degree $\leq n$ in three variables. Sard's theorem shows that if $n$ is sufficiently large, there exists a measure zero subset $Z\subset P_n\times P_n$ such that for $(p,q)\in P_n\times P_n\setminus Z$ the set $\{p=q=0\}$ has dimension $1$ if nonempty. In fact $Z$ itself is semialgebraic.
