Local monomialization of a real-analytic function, in Mathlib's terms #

The local monomialization of a real-analytic function [Ati70, Resolution Theorem], with the Jacobian clause of [BM97, Theorem 1.10], stated with Mathlib's definitions alone (exists_proper_analytic_monomialization): for f real-analytic on an open set U ⊆ ℝⁿ and not identically zero near any point, a proper real-analytic map π : M → U from an analytic manifold, an analytic isomorphism over {f ≠ 0}, such that in the chart of M at every point both f ∘ π and the Jacobian determinant of π are units times monomials.

The proof applies the principalization theorem with the Jacobian clause [BM97, Theorem 1.10] (exists_extensionCompatibleFamily_isNormalCrossingsDivisor_jacobianIdeal_mul_pullback in the namespace AnalyticManifold) to the principal ideal sheaf (f) on the manifold U (IdealSheaf.principal of the section analyticSection hf):

An analytic function f on the open set U ⊆ ℝⁿ as a global section of the sheaf of analytic functions on the manifold U.

    The section analyticSection hf is f restricted to U.

    The ideal sheaf (f) on U is nonzero at every point when f is not identically zero near any point of U.

    Local monomialization of a real-analytic function [Ati70, Resolution Theorem, p. 147]. Let f be real-analytic on an open set U ⊆ ℝⁿ, and not identically zero near any point of U. There is a proper real-analytic map π : M → U from an n-dimensional real-analytic manifold M, an analytic isomorphism over the points where f does not vanish, such that near every point p of M, in the coordinates y of the chart of M at p, both f ∘ π and the Jacobian determinant of π are monomials in y times analytic functions that do not vanish at p (IsMonomialAt).

    This is the form of resolution of singularities that analysis uses: the change of variables x = π(y) turns an integral of a function of f(x) over U into a sum of integrals of functions of monomials against monomial densities. Atiyah uses it to divide distributions, Bernstein and Gelfand, independently, for the meromorphic continuation of $\int |P|^\lambda \varphi$, and Watanabe for the asymptotics of Bayesian learning [Wat09, Theorem 2.3]. The theorem follows from Bierstone and Milman's principalization with the Jacobian clause [BM97, Theorem 1.10], applied to the ideal sheaf generated by f.

    Relation to the source.

    • Strengthening. Atiyah states the theorem near a point: for f analytic and not identically zero near 0 ∈ ℝⁿ, his map is over some open neighbourhood of 0. Here π is over the whole of U, for f not identically zero near any point of U, which is his hypothesis on a connected U. The monomial form of the Jacobian determinant is not in his theorem: it is Bierstone and Milman's clause [BM97, the sentence after Theorem 1.10]. His coordinates are centred at the point and the chart coordinates here need not be, which is no weaker: a coordinate that does not vanish at the point contributes a unit.
    • Gap. Atiyah's standing convention that manifolds are connected [Ati70, footnote 2] is not asserted for M.
