Abstract

We characterize when an ideal of the algebra \({A(\mathbb{R}^d)}\) of real analytic functions on \({\mathbb{R}^d}\) which is determined by the germ at \({\mathbb {R}^d}\) of a complex analytic set V is complemented under the assumption that either V is homogeneous or \({V\cap \mathbb{R}^d}\) is compact. The characterization is given in terms of properties of the real singularities of V. In particular, for an arbitrary complex analytic variety V complementedness of the corresponding ideal in \({A(\mathbb{R}^d)}\) implies that the real part of V is coherent. We also describe the closed ideals of \({A(\mathbb{R}^d)}\) as sections of coherent sheaves.
