Transforming singularities into ordinary nodes: a detailed, new approach to resolving algebraic curves
This lucid treatment presents a new proof that a plane algebraic curve with ordinary multiple points can be transformed into a space curve and projected back to a plane curve with only ordinary double points. The work builds from a geometric idea attributed to Klein, and methodically develops a concrete path to the resolution process.
The book lays out the transformation in four chapters, explaining how a given curve is moved from the plane to a cubic surface, and how successive projections reduce complex singularities to simple nodes. It discusses triply infinite linear systems of plane cubics, canonical forms, and how bases of cubics relate to the six fundamental points. Readers will see how ordinary points and multiple points behave under the transformation, and how tangents and cycles guide the process toward a curve with only ordinary nodes."synopsis" may belong to another edition of this title.

Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book explores the resolution of higher singularities of algebraic curves into ordinary nodes for the first time. The author, an eminent mathematician, provides new proof of a fundamental theorem established by Max Noether in 1875. The author carries out an idea originally proposed by Felix Klein to transform the plane curve into a curve in space having no singular points. Then, the resulting space curve is projected into a plane curve with no other singularities than ordinary double points. Mathematical theory is enriched with a number of auxiliary theorems on triply infinite systems of cubics, enhancing our understanding of the properties and behavior of these systems. Overall, this book offers valuable insights into the resolution of singularities of algebraic curves, expanding our knowledge in this field of mathematics.
