A quantitative version of the transversality theorem

preprint2022arXivOpen access

Abstract

The present paper studies a quantitative version of the transversality theorem. More precisely, given a continuous function g∈C([0,1]d,Rm)g\in \mathcal{C}([0,1]^d,\mathbb{R}^m) and a global smooth manifold W⊂RmW\subset \mathbb{R}^m of dimension pp, we establish a quantitative estimate on the (d+p−m)(d+p-m)-dimensional Hausdorff measure of the set ZWg={x∈[0,1]d:g(x)∈W}\mathcal{Z}_{W}^{g}=\left\{x\in [0,1]^d: g(x)\in W\right\}. The obtained result is applied to quantify the total number of shock curves in weak entropy solutions to scalar conservation laws with uniformly convex fluxes in one space dimension.
