Abstract
In this paper we will present a result which gives a sufficient condition for a vector field X on ℝ3 to be equivalent at a singularity to the first non-vanishing jet jkX(p) of X at p. This condition - which only depends on the homogeneous vector field defined by jkX(p) - is stated in terms of the blown-up vector field (which is defined on S2xℝ), and essentially means that there are no saddleconnections for |S2×{0}.The key tool in the proof will be a result of local normal linearization along a codimension 1 submanifold M providing a C0 conjugacy having a normal derivative along M equal to 1.Keywords
