Decomposition of $C^{(k)}$ function

I am stuck at the following exercise in Zorich.



Let $f,gin C^{(k)}(D;mathbb{R})$, and suppose that $f(x)=0Rightarrow g(x)=0$ in the domain $D$. Show that if grad $f neq 0$, them there is a decomposition $g=hcdot f$ in $D$, where $hin C^{(k-1)}(D;mathbb{R})$.



Could you give me a hint? Thanks in advance!

  • Dear @Jiu, is $D$ a domain in $mathbb{R}^n$? I'm confused about $h$, because the image of $f$ lies in $mathbb{R}$, not in $D$. You should require $h(0)=0$ and perhaps some additional constraints on $h$.

  • @user90189 thanks for your comment! Now that you make me realize this problem, I just checked and see that in the English version, the $circ$ is replaced by $cdot$... So the $circ$ should be a typo in the German version!

  • So, I think you can try to check that $g/f$ is well-defined :)

  • @user90189 In fact when I try to write down the solution I realize that it is not correct :(
