Abstract

We give a positive answer to a conjecture of Aluffi-Harris on the computation of the Euclidean distance degree of a possibly singular projective variety in terms of the local Euler obstruction function.<br />Comment: 10 pages. Key words: Euclidean distance degree, Euler characteristic, local Euler obstruction function
