In this work we study the existence of surjective Nash maps between two given semialgebraic sets ${\mathcal S}$ and ${\mathcal T}$. Some key ingredients are: the irreducible components ${\mathcal S}_i^*$ of ${\mathcal S}$ (and their…

In this work we approach the problem of approximating uniformly continuous semialgebraic maps $f:S\to T$ from a compact semialgebraic set $S$ to an arbitrary semialgebraic set $T$ by semialgebraic maps $g:S\to T$ that are differentiable of…

In this work we study some properties and applications of Nash manifolds with corners. Our first main result shows how to `build' a Nash manifold with corners ${\mathcal Q}\subset{\mathbb R}^n$ from a suitable Nash manifold…

In this work we characterize the subsets of ${\mathbb R}^n$ that are images of Nash maps $f:{\mathbb R}^m\to{\mathbb R}^n$. We prove Shiota's conjecture and show that a subset ${\mathcal S}\subset{\mathbb R}^n$ is the image of a Nash map…

This paper is devoted to the approximation of differentiable semialgebraic functions by Nash functions. Approximation by Nash functions is known for semialgebraic functions defined on an affine Nash manifold M, and here we extend it to…

This paper deals with the existence of algebraic structures on compact Nash sets. We introduce the algebraic-topological notion of asymmetric Nash cobordism between compact Nash sets, and we prove that a compact Nash set is…

It is shown that every holomorphic map $f$ from a Runge domain $\Omega$ of an affine algebraic variety $S$ into a projective algebraic manifold $X$ is a uniform limit of Nash algebraic maps $f_\nu$ defined over an exhausting sequence of…

Given a proper map f : M $\rightarrow$ Q, having cell-like point-inverses, from a manifold-without-boundary M onto an ANR Q, it is a much-studied problem to find when f is approximable by homeomorphisms, i.e., when the decomposition of M…

The h-cobordism theorem is a noted theorem in differential and PL topology. A generalization of the h-cobordism theorem for possibly non simply connected manifolds is the so called s-cobordism theorem. In this paper, we prove semialgebraic…

In this article, we present a novel theory of locally semialgebraic superspaces along with Nash supermanifolds. By adapting Batchelor's theorem to our framework, we show that all locally semialgebraic superspaces and affine Nash…

For a differentiable manifold $M$, a pair $(M, \nabla)$ is called an affine manifold if $\nabla$ is a flat and torsion-free connection on the tangent bundle $TM\rightarrow M$. A Riemannian metric $g$ on $M$ is said to be a Hessian metric on…

Let $Y\subset{\mathbb R}^n$ be a triangulable set and let $r$ be either a positive integer or $r=\infty$. We say that $Y$ is a $\mathscr{C}^r$-approximation target space, or a $\mathscr{C}^r\text{-}\mathtt{ats}$ for short, if it has the…

We give an example of a real algebraic manifold embedded in a complex space that does not satisfy the Nash-Artin approximation Property. This Nash-Artin approximation Property is closely related to the problem of determining when the…

A celebrated theorem in Real Algebraic and Analytic Geometry (originally due to Bruhat-Cartan and Wallace and stated later in its current form by Milnor) is the (Nash) curve selection lemma. It states that each point in the closure of a…

Let $S$ be a generic submanifold of $C^N$ of real codimension m. In this work we continue the study, carried over by various authors, of the set of analytic discs attached to S. Let $M$ be the set of analytic discs attached to $S.$ Given $q…

We prove that every smooth compact submanifold of $\R^n$ can be approximated up to a small isotopy by the real locus of a nonsingular complex algebraic subset of $\C^n$ defined over $\R$. This settles a version of a conjecture posed in 1952…

We prove that a semialgebraically connected affine Nash group over a real closed field R is Nash isogenous to the semialgebraically connected component of the group H(R) of R-points of some algebraic group H defined over R. In the case when…

Let F be a holomorphic map whose components satisfy some polynomial relations. We present an algorithm for constructing Nash maps locally approximating F, whose components satisfy the same relations.

We prove a relative version over $\mathbb{Q}$ of Nash-Tognoli theorem, that is: Let $M$ be a compact smooth manifold with closed smooth submanifolds $M_1,\dots,M_\ell$ in general position, then there exists a nonsingular real algebraic set…

Two subanalytic subsets of R^n are called s-equivalent at a common point P if the Hausdorff distance between their intersections with the sphere centered at P of radius r vanishes of order greater than s when r tends to 0. In this paper we…
