On $δ$-sequences and surfaces at infinity
Abstract
In most cases the semigroup at infinity $S$ of a curve $C$ with only one place at infinity is generated by a $δ$-sequence. This sequence provides geometrical information on $C$ such as the dual graph of the resolution of the singularity of $C$ at infinity. Since different $δ$-sequences can generate the same semigroup, it is an interesting problem to know the geometrical behaviour of curves $C$ sharing the same semigroup $S$. An analogous problem arises in a more general context when considering surfaces at infinity and their $δ$-semigroups. We show how to construct $δ$-sequences, and how to obtain different families that generate the same semigroup $S$, allowing us to study the geometrical content encoded by $S$.
