Abstract: |
Formal Puiseux series are generalisations of formal power
series and formal Laurent series that also allow for fractional
exponents. They have the following general form: \[\sum_{i=N}^\infty
a_{i/d} X^{i/d}\] where N is an integer and
d is a positive integer. This
entry defines these series including their basic algebraic properties.
Furthermore, it proves the Newton–Puiseux Theorem, namely that the
Puiseux series over an algebraically closed field of characteristic 0
are also algebraically closed. |
