Feb 1, 2021 at 14:16 comment added JHM The pathological smooth shapes (relative to cut loci) are those with constant curvature, which is everywhere destroyed by generic perturbations. But the pathological continuous curves are much wilder, e.g. sin(1/x) graphs, and i avoid them.
Feb 1, 2021 at 13:34 comment added Leo Moos @user142382 I should have specified that the perturbation in question ought to be in the smooth category: the perturbed curve should remain regular, which excludes the piecewise linear curves that you suggest.
Jan 31, 2021 at 19:38 comment added Leo Moos @MattF. That's a fortuitous coincidence - I would certainly welcome their input!
Jan 31, 2021 at 18:15 comment added user44143 Both authors are on MO -- perhaps either DmitriPanov or @AntonPetrunin will comment!

Jan 29, 2021 at 20:43 comment added Leo Moos @JosephO'Rourke Thank you for this, some of the references could be relevant, although I didn't see any that look directly applicable.
Jan 29, 2021 at 20:23 comment added user142382 Possibly this is wrong, but: Isn't the cut locus a finite graph if the curve $\gamma$ is piecewise linear, and can't this be arranged after an arbitrarily small perturbation?
Jan 29, 2021 at 16:38 comment added Joseph O'Rourke Not sure, but there may be relevant citations in this paper: Itoh, Jin-ichi, and Costin Vîlcu. "Every graph is a cut locus." Journal of the Mathematical Society of Japan 67, no. 3 (2015): 1227-1238. arXiv abs.
