Higher Nash blowups

Takehiko Yasuda

Abstract

For each non-negative integer $n$, we define the $n$-th Nash blowup of an algebraic variety, and call them all higher Nash blowups. When $n=1$, it coincides with the classical Nash blowup. We study higher Nash blowups of curves in detail and prove that any curve in characteristic zero can be desingularized by its $n$-th Nash blowup with $n$ large enough.

Higher Nash blowups

Abstract

For each non-negative integer , we define the -th Nash blowup of an algebraic variety, and call them all higher Nash blowups. When , it coincides with the classical Nash blowup. We study higher Nash blowups of curves in detail and prove that any curve in characteristic zero can be desingularized by its -th Nash blowup with large enough.

Key Result

Proposition 2

Let $[Z] \in \mathbf{Nash}_{n} (X)$ with $Z \nsubseteq C$. Then $Z$ is contained in a unique analytic branch of $X$.
