In real algebraic geometry, Gudkov's conjecture, also called Gudkov’s congruence, (named after Dmitry Gudkov) was a conjecture, and is now a theorem, which states that an M-curve of even degree 2 d {\displaystyle 2d} obeys the congruence
where p {\displaystyle p} is the number of positive ovals and n {\displaystyle n} the number of negative ovals of the M-curve. (Here, the term M-curve stands for "maximal curve"; it means a smooth algebraic curve over the reals whose genus is k − − --> 1 {\displaystyle k-1} , where k {\displaystyle k} is the number of maximal components of the curve.[1])
The theorem was proved by the combined works of Vladimir Arnold and Vladimir Rokhlin.[2][3][4]
