[For the entire collection see Zbl 0723.00028.] The paper considers algebroid curves \(C\subseteq X\), where \(K\) is an algebraically closed field and \(X=\text{Spec}Kx_ 1,\ldots,x_ N\), \(N\geq 3\). --- Every such curve can be desingularized via successive quadratic transforms of \(X\), say: \[ X\xleftarrow{\pi_ 1} X_ 1\xleftarrow{\pi_ 2}\cdots X_ i\xleftarrow{\pi_{i+1}} X_{i+1}\longleftarrow\cdots\xleftarrow{\pi_ m} X_ m \tag{*} \] A weighted labelled graph \(F\) is defined (with \(m\) vertices) and it is shown that all the information about the geometry of (*) are carried by \(F\), and does not depend on the embedding chosen for \(C\) in \(X\). \(F\) is called the dual graph of \(C\). Then properties are given in order to guarantee that a weighted labelled graph \(G\) is the dual graph of a space curve \(C\); the construction of such curve is obtained by matrices of Hamburger-Noether, which the author has treated in a previous paper [J. Pure Appl. Algebra 64, No. 1, 7-19 (1990; Zbl 0744.14020)].
