A.4.9 Resolution of singularities
Resolution of singularities and applications thereof are provided by the
libraries resolve.lib and reszeta.lib ; graphical output may be
generated automatically by using external programs surf and dot
respectively to which a specialized interface is provided by the library
resgraph.lib . In this example, the basic functionality of the
resolution of singularities package is illustrated by the computation of
the intersection matrix and genera of the exceptional curves on a surface
obtained from resolving the A6 surface singularity. A separate tutorial,
which introduces the complete functionality of the package and explains
the rather complicated data structures appearing in intermediate results,
can be found at http://www.singular.uni-kl.de/tutor_resol.ps .
