The link of a real analytic map germ f : (R 3 , 0) → (R 3 , 0) is obtained by taking the intersection of the image with a small enough sphere S 2 centered at the origin in R 3 . If f is finitely determined, then the link is a stable map γ from S 2 to S 2 . We define Gauss words which contains all the topological information of the link in the case that the singular set S(γ) is connected and we prove that in this case they provide us with a complete topological invariant.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
