The limit point and the T-function

From MaRDI portal




Abstract: Let calP(t)inBbbK(t)n be a rational parametrization of an algebraic space curve calC. In this paper, we introduce the notion of limit point, PL, of the given parametrization mathcalP(t), and some remarkable properties of PL are obtained. In addition, we generalize the results in cite{MyB-2017} concerning the T--function, T(s), which is defined by means of a univariate resultant. More precisely, independently on whether the limit point is regular or not, we show that T(s)=prodi=1nHPi(s)mi1. The polynomials HPi(s),,i=1,ldots,n are the fibre functions, and its roots are the fibre of the ordinary singularities PiincalC of multiplicity mi,,i=1,ldots,n. Thus, a complete classification of the singularities of a given space curve, via the factorization of a resultant, is obtained.
