We study when an ordering \(\alpha\) in a real variety V can be described by a half branch. That means there exists \(\gamma: (0,\epsilon)\to V,\) analytic, such that for every \(f\in R[V]:\) \(sgn_{\alpha}f=sgn f(\gamma (t))\) for t small enough. It was proved by \textit{M. E. Alonso, J. M. Gamboa} and \textit{J. M. Ruiz} [J. Pure Appl. Algebra 36, 1-14 (1985; Zbl 0559.14015)] that this is true for real surfaces. Here we prove that the result is also true for any dimension if the valuation associated to the ordering has maximum rank, even more if the ordering is centered at a regular point we show that the curve can be extended \(C^{\infty}\) to \(t=0\).
