In this paper we provide a family of reduced plane curves with two branches that have a constant Tjurina number in their equisingularity class, along with a closed formula for it in terms of topological data.
We study, for plane complex branches of genus one, the topological type of its generic polar curve, as a function of the semigroup of values and the Zariski invariant of the branch. We improve some results given by Casas-Alvero in 2023, since we filter the topological type fixed for the branch by the possible values of Zariski invariants.
In this work we study the \emph{Saito number} of a plane curve and we present a method to determine the minimal Saito number for plane curves in a given equisingularity class, that gives rise to an actual algorithm. In particular situations, we also provide various formulas for this number. In addition, if $ν_0$ and $ν_1$ are two coprime positive integers and $N>0$ then we show that for any $1\leq k\leq \left [\frac{Nν_0}{2}\right ]$ there exits a plane curve equisingular to the curve $$y^{Nν_0}-x^{Nν_1}=0$$ such that its Saito number is precisely $k$.
In this work we describe dicritical foliations in $(\mathbb{C}^2,0)$ at a triple point of the resolution dual graph of an analytic plane branch $\mathcal{C}$ using its semiroots. In particular, we obtain a constructive method to present a one-parameter family $\mathcal{C}_{u}$ of separatrices for such foliations. As a by-product we relate the contact order between a special member of $\mathcal{C}_{u}$ and $\mathcal{C}$ with analytic discrete invariants of plane branches.
We characterize nondicrital generalized curve foliations with fixed reduced separatrix. Moreover, we give suficient conditions when a plane analytic curve is its reduced separatrix. For that, we introduce a distinguished expression for a given 1-form, called {\it Weierstrass form}. Then, using Weierstrass forms, we characterize the nondicritical generalized curve foliations: first, for foliations with monomial separatrix using toric resolution; second, for foliations with reduced separatrix, using the $GSV$-index. In this last case the characterization, which is our main result, could be interpreted in function of a polar of the foliation and a polar of its reduced separatrix.
We introduce the concept of good Saito's basis for a plane curve $S$ and we explore it to obtain a formula for the minimal Tjurina number in a topological class. In particular, we present a positive answer for a question of Dimca and Greuel relating the Tjurina number and the Milnor number for a singular irreducible plane curve.
We perform the analytic classification of plane branches of multiplicity less or equal than four.
In this paper we give a solution to Zariski's problem of analytic classification of plane branches.
