Abstract

The medial axis is a geometric object associated with any bounded open set in \Bbb R^n which has various applications in computer science. We study it from a mathematical point of view. We give some results about its geometrical structure when the open set is subanalytic and we prove that it is stable under C2-perturbations when the open set is bounded by a hypersurface with positive local feature size.
