Abstract

We introduce the notion of domain of finite type DRn\mathscr{D}\subset\mathbb{R}^n generalizing an earlier work of Bodin, Popescu-Pampu and Sorea. Then, we prove that every finite graph admitting a good orientation whose vertices have degree 1 or 3 can be realized as the Poincar\'e-Reeb graph of a stable (globally) algebraic domain of finite type DRn\mathscr{D}\subset\mathbb{R}^n, for every n2n\geq 2. If in addition n3n\geq 3, we construct a class of graphs allowing vertices of degree 22 also. Algebraic approximation techniques \`a la Nash-Tognoli and stable Morse functions are fundamental tools in our approach. In particular, the recent extensions over Q\mathbb{Q} of such algebraic approximation techniques developed by Ghiloni and the author allow us to reduce the coefficients of the describing polynomials over Q\mathbb{Q} and to extend our constructions over real closed fields.
