The Kuratowski convergence and connected components
2012
International audience; We investigate the Kuratowski convergence of the connected components of the sections of a definable set applying the result obtained to semialgebraic approximation of subanalytic sets. We are led to some considerations concerning the connectedness of the limit set in general. We discuss also the behaviour of the dimension of converging sections and prove some general facts about the Kuratowski convergence in tame geometry.
On the points realizing the distance to a definable set
2011
Abstract We prove a definable/subanalytic version of a useful lemma, presumably due to John Nash, concerning the points realizing the Euclidean distance to an analytic submanifold of R n . We present a parameter version of the main result and we discuss the properties of the multifunction obtained.
Characterization of the Clarke regularity of subanalytic sets
2017
International audience; In this note, we will show that for a closed subanalytic subset $A \subset \mathbb{R}^n$, the Clarke tangential regularity of $A$ at $x_0 \in A$ is equivalent to the coincidence of the Clarke's tangent cone to $A$ at $x_0$ with the set \\$$\mathcal{L}(A, x_0):= \bigg\{\dot{c}_+(0) \in \mathbb{R}^n: \, c:[0,1]\longrightarrow A\;\;\mbox{\it is Lipschitz}, \, c(0)=x_0\bigg\}.$$Where $\dot{c}_+(0)$ denotes the right-strict derivative of $c$ at $0$. The results obtained are used to show that the Clarke regularity of the epigraph of a function may be characterized by a new formula of the Clarke subdifferential of that function.
