Rank of a smooth map is lower semicontinuous?












0












$begingroup$


Let $F:Mrightarrow N$ be a smooth map between manifolds, $pin M$. Prove that if $operatorname{rank}_{p}F=r$, then there exists a neighborhood $U$ of $p$, such that for $forall qin U$, $operatorname{rank}_{q}Fgeqslant r$.



Could anyone help me? Thanks in advance.

    This is actually a linear-algebra fact. The map $mathrm{rank}:M_{mtimes n}(mathbb{R})tomathbb{Z}$ is lower semicontinuous.

Let us choose coordinate charts $(x_{1},ldots,x_{n})$ around $p$ and $(y_{1},ldots,y_{m})$ around $F(p)$. Writing $F=big(F_{1}(x_{1},ldots,x_{n}),ldots,F_{m}(x_{1},ldots,x_{n})big)$, we can express the derivative $d_{p}F$ as a matrix
$$
begin{pmatrix}
frac{partial F_{1}}{partial x_{1}}(p) & cdots & frac{partial F_{1}}{partial x_{n}}(p)\
vdots & & vdots\
frac{partial F_{m}}{partial x_{1}}(p) & cdots & frac{partial F_{m}}{partial x_{n}}(p)
end{pmatrix}.
$$

By assumption, this matrix has rank $r$, so there is a nonzero minor of size $rtimes r$:
$$
begin{vmatrix}
frac{partial F_{i_{1}}}{partial x_{j_{1}}}(p) & cdots & frac{partial F_{i_{1}}}{partial x_{j_{r}}}(p)\
vdots & & vdots\
frac{partial F_{i_{r}}}{partial x_{j_{1}}}(p) & cdots & frac{partial F_{i_{r}}}{partial x_{j_{r}}}(p)
end{vmatrix}neq 0.
$$
The map
$$
G:qmapsto begin{vmatrix}
frac{partial F_{i_{1}}}{partial x_{j_{1}}}(q) & cdots & frac{partial F_{i_{1}}}{partial x_{j_{r}}}(q)\
vdots & & vdots\
frac{partial F_{i_{r}}}{partial x_{j_{1}}}(q) & cdots & frac{partial F_{i_{r}}}{partial x_{j_{r}}}(q)
end{vmatrix},
$$
is continuous and nonzero at $p$, so there exists a neighborhood $U$ of $p$ such that $G(q)neq 0$ for all $qin U$. This implies that for all $qin U$
$$
d_{q}F=begin{pmatrix}
frac{partial F_{1}}{partial x_{1}}(q) & cdots & frac{partial F_{1}}{partial x_{n}}(q)\
vdots & & vdots\
frac{partial F_{m}}{partial x_{1}}(q) & cdots & frac{partial F_{m}}{partial x_{n}}(q)
end{pmatrix}
$$
has rank at least $r$, since it has a nonzero $rtimes r$ minor.
