Deformation of generic submanifolds in a complex manifold
This paper shows that an arbitrary generic submanifold in a complex manifold
can be deformed into a 1-parameter family of generic submanifolds satisfying
strong nondegeneracy conditions. The proofs use a careful analysis of the jet
spaces of embeddings satisfying certain nondegeneracy properties, and also make
use of the Thom transversality theorem, as well as the stratification of
real-algebraic sets. Optimal results on the order of nondegeneracy are given.Comment: 24 page
