Semigroups, d-invariants and deformations of cuspidal singular points of plane curves

preprint2014arXivOpen access

Abstract

We apply Heegaard Floer homology to study deformations of singularities of plane algebraic curves. Our main result provides an obstruction to the existence of a deformation between two singularities. Generalizations include the case of multiple singularities. The obstruction is formulated in terms of a semicontinuity property for semigroups associated to the singularities.
