- Let K be a germ of an analytic curve over the complex numbers. I know
- one can resolve singularities in great generality (e.g. Hironaka's
- resolution theorems, which would include the situation of K as a special
- case). On the other hand, I know that for algebraic curves, resolution
- is very straightforward: one just passes to the normalization.
-
- I would assume there is an equally simple way to do it for K. What is it?
