Approximation of smooth diffeomorphisms by polynomial diffeomorphisms?
Is it possible to (locally) approximate an arbitrary smooth diffeomorphism by a polynomial diffeomorphism?
More precisely: Let $f:\mathbb{R}^d\rightarrow\mathbb{R}^d$ be a smooth diffeomorphism for $d&...

Geometry of Level sets of elliptic polynomials in two real variables
Updated:
A polynomial $P(x,y)\in \mathbb{R}[x,y]$ is called an elliptic polynomial if its last homogeneous part does not vanish on $\mathbb{R}^2\setminus\{0\}$.The two answers to this post provide a ...

Expressing a vector valued function in terms of its derivatives
Consider a function
$$
f:\mathbb{R}^n\rightarrow\mathbb{R}^m
$$
given by $m$ functions $f_i:\mathbb{R}^n\rightarrow \mathbb{R}$ that we can assume to be polynomials in $x_1,\dots,x_n$.
Does there ...

Question regarding the image of a polynomial map containing a small box
I have the following question, which intuitively seems it should be true but I wasn't sure how to prove it rigorously.
Let $\delta, \varepsilon > 0$.
Let $\Psi_i(w_1, w_2, \mathbf{v})$ be a ...
