Abstract: We present real algebraic functions with prescribed preimages. Smooth closed manifolds are, according to Nash's celebrating theory, regarded as the zero sets of some real polynomials and smooth. Moreover, canonical projections of spheres naturally embedded in the $1$-dimensional higher Euclidean spaces (affine spaces) and some natural functions on projective spaces, Lie groups and their quotient spaces are important examples of real algebraic funtions. However, in general, it is very important to construct explicit examples. In addition, in considerable cases, the structures of the functions and maps are hard to understand. We construct examples by answering to Sharko's problems and author's suitably revised ones in improved styles. They ask whether we can find nice smooth functions with prescribed preimages. We have previously given an answer with real algebraic functions and this result is one of key ingredients.
