We apply this result to study polynomials with a finite number of critical points.engMilnor number at infinity, topology and Newton boundary of a polynomial functionjournal articlehttp://www.springerlink.com/content/c6331jk545v12345/open access512.7Contractile threefoldsBifurcation SetSingularitiesTheoremHypersurfacesC-3Geometria algebraica1201.01 GeometrÃa Algebraica
