Positive semidefinite analytic functions on real analytic surfaces

Abstract

Let XRnX\subset{\mathbb R}^n be a (global) real analytic surface. Then every positive semidefinite meromorphic function on XX is a sum of 1010 squares of meromorphic functions on XX. As a consequence, we provide a real Nullstellensatz for (global) real analytic surfaces.
