Abstract: Let $(R,M,k)$ be a regular local G-ring with regular system of parameters $(u_1,ldots,u_d,y)$. We prove that the Hironaka characteristic polyhedron $Delta(f;u_1,ldots,u_d)$, $fotin(u_1,ldots,u_d)$ of a hypersurface singularity $X=mSpecR/(f)$ can be computed in some system of coordinates belonging to $R$. No assumption on the residue characteristic is required.

Review text

Let \((R, \mathfrak{m})\) be a regular local ring and \(y, u_1, \ldots, u_d\) be a regular system of parameters. Let \(f\in \mathfrak{m}\) and \(f\not\in \langle u_1, \ldots, u_d\rangle\). Hironaka associated a polyhedron \(\Delta(f; u_1, \ldots, u_d;y)\subset \mathbb{R}^d_{\geq 0}\) and proved that there exists \(z\in\widehat{R}\) such that \(\{z, u_1, \ldots, u_d\}\) is a regular system of parameters of \(\widehat{R}\) and \[ \Delta(f; u_1, \ldots, u_d; z)=\underset{(\widehat{y}, u_1, \ldots, u_d)}{\bigcap} \Delta(f; u_1, \ldots, u_d, \widehat{y}) \] where the intersection is over all regular systems of parameters of \(\widehat{R}\) of the form \((\widehat{y}, u_1, \ldots, u_d)\), (c.f. \textit{H. Hironaka} [J. Math. Kyoto Univ. 7, 251--293 (1967; Zbl 0159.50502)]). It is proved that \(z\) can be chosen in \(R\) in case \(R\) is a \(G\)--ring (i.e. the formal fibres are geometrically regular).
