We introduce a higher-order version of the tangent map of a morphism and find a matrix representation. We then apply this matrix to solve a conjecture by T. Yasuda regarding the semigroup of the higher Nash blowup of formal curves. We first show that the conjecture is true for toric curves. We conclude by exhibiting a family of non-monomial curves where the conjecture fails.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
