Order of tangency between manifolds

Algebraic Geometry 2019-12-03 v3 Differential Geometry

Abstract

We study the order of tangency between two manifolds of same dimension and give that notion three quite different geometric interpretations. Related aspects of the order of tangency, e.g., regular separation exponents, are also discussed.
