Let C denote an irreducible, algebraic curve defined over an algebraically closed field k. Let ? be a singular point of C. We shall employ the following notation throughout the rest of this paper: R will denote the local ring at P, K the quotient field of the integral closure of R in K, A the completion of R with respect to its radical topology, and Ā the integral closure of A in its total quotient ring.
