Abstract

Given a semianalytic set S in \({\mathbb{C}^n}\) and a point \({p \in \bar{S}}\), there is a unique smallest complex-analytic germ X p which contains S p , called the holomorphic closure of S p . We show that if S is semialgebraic then X p is a Nash germ, for every p, and S admits a semialgebraic filtration by the holomorphic closure dimension. As a consequence, every semialgebraic subset of a complex vector space admits a semialgebraic stratification into CR manifolds.
