Implicit function theorem and its consequence

Let $f:{\Bbb C}^{n+1}\to {\Bbb C}^n$ be a map defined by homogeneous polynomials. There is a point $p\in f^{-1}(0)$ and a neighbourhood $U$ of $p$ in $f^{-1}(0)$, such that $d(f)$ has rank $n$ at ever …

Thom's first isotopy lemma says that given $f:M\to P$ a smooth map between smooth manifolds and a closed Whitney stratified subset $S$ of $M$, such that $f|_S:S\to P$ is proper and $f|_X:X\to P$ is a …
