Abstract

Our main subject are the algebroid irreducible plane curves or plane branches. We show that every plane branch has a special kind of parametrization, the SO called Puiseux parametrization, and that a singular plane branch can be turned into a regular one, through blowing-ups. We also study the intersection index of two plane branches and the semigroup of values associated to a plane branch. Finally we estabilish the equality between the semigroup\'s conductor and the Milnor number of the branch. (AU)
