Extract

As the culmination of a notable sequence of papers, Mather [6] gave a necessary and sufficient condition that stable maps were dense in C(N, P): it is that the dimensions n and p satisfy the condition n <σ(n, p), where σ(n, p) is the codimension (in a sufficiently large jet space) of the set of jets in Jr(n, p) whose classification (for ℋ-equivalence) ‘involves moduli’.
