Abstract: | A generalization of the Hilbert basis theorem in the geometric setting is proposed. It asserts that, for any well-describable (in a certain sense) family of polynomials, there exists a number C such that if P is an everywhere dense (in a certain sense) subfamily of this family, a is an arbitrary point, and the first C polynomials in any sequence from P vanish at the point a, then all polynomials from P vanish at a. |
