\(C^\ell\)-contact and \(C^\ell\)-right equivalences of real semi-quasihomogeneous \(C^\ell\) function germs (Q464672)

The authors study \(C^l\) versions of the right and contact equivalences of \(C^l\) function germs \(f: (\mathbb R^n,0) \to (\mathbb R,0),\) for \(1\leq l \leq \infty.\) The \(C^l\)-right equivalence implies the \(C^l\)-contact equivalence for any \( 1\leq l \leq \infty,\) but the converse statement is not true in general. The aim of the paper is to show that the converse holds for semi-quasihomogeneous \(C^l\) function germs, \(1\leq l \leq \infty.\) For quasihomogeneous germs, the result recovers a previous result of \textit{M. Takahashi} for \(l=\infty\) in [Houston J. Math. 35, No. 3, 829--833 (2009; Zbl 1178.58014)].
