Abstract:
The title refers to the main idea involved in the proof of the result stated in the second lecture and I shall go into rather more detail here. One is looking for such an approximation technique that is inherited by both (the closure of) images under (not necessarily proper) linear maps and by intersections with affine subspaces.
