Abstract: | Let X be a subset in 1,1]n0 Rn0 defined by the formula X={x0|Q1x1Q2x2...Q x ((x0,x1,...x ) X )}, where Qi { }, Qi Qi+1, xi 1, 1]ni, and X may be eitheran open or a closed set in 1,1]n0+...+n , being the differencebetween a finite CW-complex and its subcomplex. An upper boundon each Betti number of X is expressed via a sum of Betti numbersof some sets defined by quantifier-free formulae involving X . In important particular cases of semialgebraic and semi-Pfaffiansets defined by quantifier-free formulae with polynomials andPfaffian functions respectively, upper bounds on Betti numbersof X are well known. The results allow to extend the boundsto sets defined with quantifiers, in particular to sub-Pfaffiansets. |
