HironakaExamples.RealPlaneCircle

V(x² + y²) ⊆ ℝ² has support the origin and no simple point #

The standard example x² + y² of the phenomenon Hironaka remarks on [Hir64, Introduction], a reduced real-analytic space whose simple locus is not dense: the closed subspace X = V(x² + y²) of the real plane (reduced, since x² + y² is irreducible in ℝ{x, y} and the quotient 𝒪_{ℝ²,0} / (x² + y²) is therefore a domain: circleSpace_isReduced of HironakaExamples/Space/CircleReduced.lean, for the analytic space of the same equation) has the single real point 0, and 0 is not a simple point — the stalk 𝒪_{ℝ²,0} / (x² + y²) is not regular, since x² + y² is a nonzero element of 𝔪_0² of the regular local ring 𝒪_{ℝ²,0} (Hironaka.Local.not_isRegularLocalRing_quotient_span_singleton, [TSPA, Tag 00NR]). So X.regularLocus = ∅ with X ≠ ∅, and the lift of the simple locus is empty; this is why the resolution of real-analytic spaces (AnalyticSpace.exists_functorial_resolution) asserts only that the image of the resolution is the closure of the simple locus.

The plane's coordinate germs at a point #

Every point of the plane lies in the source of the identity chart (the form rw needs).

The germ at x of the i-th coordinate section is the coordinate germ of the identity chart (coord).

The value at x of the i-th coordinate germ is x i.

The value of x² + y² at a point p of the plane is p 0 ^ 2 + p 1 ^ 2.

V(x² + y²): the support and the simple points #

The coordinate germs at the origin lie in the maximal ideal.

x² + y² does not vanish identically near the origin: its value at (t, t) is 2 t² (the identity lemma germ_eq_zero_iff).

At a point of the support of x² + y² (the origin), 𝒪_{ℝ²,0}/(x² + y²) is not a regular local ring: x² + y² is a nonzero element of the square of the maximal ideal.

V(x² + y²) ⊆ ℝ² has no simple point ([Hir64, Introduction]). At the only point 0 the stalk of X is 𝒪_{ℝ²,0} / (x² + y²) (mem_reg_toAnalyticSpace_iff) with x² + y² a nonzero element of 𝔪_0², and a regular local ring modulo a nonzero element of 𝔪² is not regular.
