The paper is a continuation of work initiated by the first two authors in [K– M]. Section 1 is introductory. In Section 2 we prove a basic lemma, Lemma 2.1, and use it to give new proofs of key technical results of Scheiderer in [S1] [S2] in the compact case; see Corollaries 2.3, 2.4 and 2.5. Lemma 2.1 is also used in Section 3 where we continue the examination of the case n = 1 initiated in [K–M], concentrating on the compact case. In Section 4 we prove certain uniform degree bounds for representations in the case n = 1, which we then use in Section 5 to prove that (‡) holds for basic closed semi-algebraic subsets of cylinders with compact cross-section, provided the generators satisfy certain conditions; see Theorem 5.3 and Corollary 5.5. Theorem 5.3 provides a partial answer to a question raised by Schmudgen in [Sc2]. We also show that, for basic closed semi-algebraic subsets of cylinders with compact cross-section, the sufficient conditions for (SMP) given in [Sc2] are also necessary; see Corollary 5.2(b). In Section 6 we prove a module variant of the result in [Sc2], in the same spirit as Putinar’s variant [Pu] of the result in [Sc1] in the compact case; see Theorem 6.1. We apply this to basic closed semi-algebraic subsets of cylinders with compact cross-section; see Corollary 6.4. In Section 7 we apply the results from Section 5 to solve two of the open problems listed in [K–M]; see Corollary 7.1 and Corollary 7.4. In Section 8 we consider a number of examples in the plane. In Section 9 we list some open problems.
