On the affine Bezout inequality (Q1911215)

The aim of the paper is to give an elementary proof of the so-called affine Bézout inequality: ``The set in \(\overline k^n\) of all common zeroes of the polynomials \(f_1, \dots, f_n \in k[X_1, \dots, X_n]\) is either infinite or has at most \((\deg f_1) \dots (\deg f_n)\) elements \((\overline k\) indicating the algebraic closure of the field \(k)\)''.
