Nash Functions - Global Properties

Global Properties

The global properties are more difficult to obtain. The fact that the ring of Nash functions on a Nash manifold (even noncompact) is noetherian was proved independently (1973) by Jean-Jacques Risler and Gustave Efroymson. Nash manifolds have properties similar to but weaker than Cartan's theorems A and B on Stein manifolds. Let denote the sheaf of Nash function germs on a Nash manifold M, and be a coherent sheaf of -ideals. Assume is finite, i.e., there exists a finite open semialgebraic covering of M such that, for each i, is generated by Nash functions on . Then is globally generated by Nash functions on M, and the natural map

is surjective. However

contrarily to the case of Stein manifolds.

Famous quotes containing the words global and/or properties:

    Ours is a brand—new world of allatonceness. “Time” has ceased, “space” has vanished. We now live in a global village ... a simultaneous happening.
    Marshall McLuhan (1911–1980)

    The reason why men enter into society, is the preservation of their property; and the end why they choose and authorize a legislative, is, that there may be laws made, and rules set, as guards and fences to the properties of all the members of the society: to limit the power, and moderate the dominion, of every part and member of the society.
    John Locke (1632–1704)
