Decompositions of the higher order polars of plane branches
Abstract
In Casas Casas-Alvero found decompositions of higher order polars of an irreducible plane curve generalizing the results of Merle. We improve his result giving a finer decomposition where we determine the topological type and the number of a kind of branches that we call threshold semi-roots.
