Abstract

In the first chapter we define the semigroup of ordinary multiple point of an analytic plane curve f and give its characterisation. The structure of this semigroup is completely decided by the order of f. In the second chapter we give a detailed analysis of the straightening formula given by Rota. Among other things we give an algorithm to straighten a nonstandard pure unitableau of depth 2 using any violation. In the third chapter we count certain subset of monomials of degree V in a ladder type array of indeterminates. We give a formula counting monomials in a ladder type array of indeterminates of degree V and of index (LESSTHEQ)1 and show that it is a polynomial in V with rational coefficients. Using Abhyankar's theorem, we deduce that the ideal generated by 2 x 2 minors of the ladder-type array of indeterminates in the corresponding polynomial ring is Hilbertian i.e. the Hilbert polynomial of the ideal coincides with its Hilbert function for all nonnegative integers.
