Curves in P2(C) with 1-dimensional symmetry.

A. A. du Plessis, Charles Terence Clegg Wall (1999)

Revista Matemática Complutense

In a previous paper we showed that the existence of a 1-parameter symmetry group of a hypersurface X in projective space was equivalent to failure of versality of a certain unfolding. Here we study in detail (reduced) plane curves of degree d ≥ 3, excluding the trivial case of cones. We enumerate all possible group actions -these have to be either semisimple or unipotent- for any degree d. A 2-parameter group can only occur if d = 3. Explicit lists of singularities of the corresponding curves are...

Exposé on a conjecture of Tougeron

Joseph Becker (1977)

Annales de l'institut Fourier

An algebra homomorphism of the locatized affine rings of an algebraic variety is continuous in the Krull topology of the respective local rings. It is not necessarily open or closed in the Krull topology. However, we show that the induced map on the associated analytic local rings is also open and closed in the Krull topology. To do this we prove a conjecture of Tougeron which states that if η is an analytic curve on an analytic variety V and f is a formal power series which is convergent when restricted...
