The Semiring of Values of an Algebroid Curve
Abstract
We introduce the semiring of values $\Gamma$ with respect to the tropical operations associated to an algebroid curve. As a set, $\Gamma$ determines and is determined by the well known semigroup of values $S$ and we prove that $\Gamma$ is always finitely generated in contrast to $S$. In particular, for a plane curve, we present a straightforward way to obtain $\Gamma$ in terms of the semiring of each branch of the curve and the mutual intersection multiplicity of its branches. In the analytical case, this allows us to connect directly the results of Zariski and Waldi that characterize the topological type of the curve.
