Computing Versal Deformations of Singularities with Hauser’s Algorithm

  • Chapter
Deformations of Surface Singularities

Part of the book series: Bolyai Society Mathematical Studies ((BSMS,volume 23))

Abstract

Hauser’s algorithm provides an alternative approach to the computation of versal deformations, not based on step by step extending infinitesimal deformations. We use this method to compute nontrivial examples.
