Weierstrass points on Gorenstein curves

Carl Widland and Robert F. Lax

Vol. 142 (1990), No. 1, 197–208
Abstract

On a nonsingular projective curve, there are several equivalent ways to define a Weierstrass point. On an irreducible, projective Gorenstein curve, we define Weierstrass points by using a “wronskian” formed from dualizing differentials. We then investigate whether other conditions in the singular case are equivalent to this definition.
