Real-analytic space

An analytic space over the field $ \mathbf R $ of real numbers. Unlike in the case of complex-analytic spaces, the structure sheaves of real-analytic spaces need not be coherent (cf. Coherent sheaf). Real-analytic spaces are said to be coherent if their structure sheaves are coherent. All real-analytic manifolds (i.e. smooth real-analytic spaces) are coherent real-analytic spaces.

Let $ V _ {a} $ be the germ at a point $ a $ of a real-analytic subset of $ \mathbf R ^ {n} $ (cf. Analytic set). This defines the germ at $ a $ of a complex-analytic subset $ \widetilde{V} _ {a} $ of the space $ \mathbf C ^ {n} $ with the following equivalent properties: 1) $ \widetilde{V}_ {a} $ is the intersection of all germs of complex-analytic sets containing $ V _ {a} $; 2) if $ {\mathcal O} _ {V _ {a} } $ is the analytic algebra of the germ $ V _ {a} $, then $ {\mathcal O} _ {V _ {a} } \otimes \mathbf C $ is the analytic algebra of the germ $ \widetilde{V}_ {a} $. The germ $ \widetilde{V}_ {a} $ is said to be the complexification of the germ $ V _ {a} $, and $ V _ {a} $ is said to be the real part of the germ $ \widetilde{V}_ {a} $. Analogously, for any coherent real-analytic countably-infinite space $ X $ it is possible to construct the complexification $ \widetilde{X} $, which is a complex-analytic space. $ X $ will then have a fundamental system of neighbourhoods in $ \widetilde{X} $ which are Stein spaces (cf. Stein space).

The theory of coherent real-analytic spaces is similar to the theory of complex Stein spaces. Global sections of any coherent analytic sheaf of modules $ F $ on a coherent real-analytic countably-infinite space $ X $ generate modules of germs of its sections at any point of $ X $, and all groups $ H ^ {q} ( X, F ) $ vanish if $ q \geq 1 $.

For any finite-dimensional coherent real-analytic countably-infinite space $ ( X, {\mathcal O} _ {X} ) $ there exists a morphism

$$ f = ( f _ {0} , f _ {1} ): ( X, {\mathcal O} _ {X} ) \rightarrow \ ( \mathbf R ^ {n} , {\mathcal O} _ {\mathbf R ^ {n} } ) $$

such that $ f _ {0} $ is a proper one-to-one mapping of $ X $ into a coherent subspace in $ \mathbf R ^ {n} $, while $ f $ is an imbedding at the smooth points of $ X $. In particular, any (Hausdorff and countably-infinite) real-analytic manifold is isomorphic to a real-analytic submanifold in $ \mathbf R ^ {n} $. For a reduced coherent real-analytic space $ X $ the set of classes of isomorphic real-analytic principal fibre bundles with a real structure Lie group $ G $, admitting complexification, and base $ X $ is in one-to-one correspondence with the set of classes of isomorphic topological principal fibre bundles with the same structure group $ G $.
