It is quite natural to conjecture that a positively homogeneous function with degree d ≥ 2 on satisfies the Łojasiewicz gradient inequality with exponent θ = 1/d without any need for an analyticity assumption. We show that this property is true under some additional hypotheses, but not always, even for N = 2.
