RT info:eu-repo/semantics/article T1 Asymptotes and perfect curves A1 Blasco Lorenzo, Ángel A1 Pérez Díaz, Sonia K1 Implicit algebraic plane curve K1 Infinity branches K1 Asymptotes K1 Perfect curves K1 Matemáticas K1 Mathematics AB We develop a method for computing all the generalized asymptotes of a real plane algebraic curve C implicitly defined by an irreducible polynomial f(x, y) ∈ R[x, y]. The approach is based on the notion of perfect curve introduced from the concepts and results presented in Blasco and P´erez-D´ıaz (2013). In addition, we study some properties concerning perfect curves and in particular, we provide a necessary and sufficient condition for a plane curve to be perfect. Finally, we show that the equivalent class of generalized asymptotes for a branch of a plane curve can be described as an affine space R m for a certain m.
