Abstract
Using Milnor's fibration theorem [5] for analytic hypersurfaces and the “conic structure lemma”, one gets informations on local homological properties of analytic spaces, as also on the topological behaviour of algebraic sets at ∞. A simple proof of D. Sullivan's theorem about the Euler-Poincaré characteristic of (X, X-x), for X a real or complex analytic space, as well as some extensions and generalisations are given.
