Abstract

Let KK be a discretely valued field with ring of integers OK\mathcal{O}_K with perfect residue field. Let K(x)K(x) be the rational function field in one variable. Let POK1\mathbb{P}^1_{\mathcal{O}_K} be the standard smooth model of PK1\mathbb{P}^1_K with coordinate xx on irreducible special fiber. Let f(x)OK[x]f(x) \in \mathcal{O}_K[x] be a monic irreducible polynomial with corresponding divisor of zeroes div0(f)\text{div}_0(f) on POK1\mathbb{P}^1_{\mathcal{O}_K}. We give an explicit description of the minimal embedded resolution Y\mathcal{Y} of the pair (POK1,div0(f))(\mathbb{P}^1_{\mathcal{O}_K}, \text{div}_0(f)) by using Mac Lane's theory to write down the discrete valuations on K(x)K(x) corresponding to the irreducible components of the special fiber of Y\mathcal{Y}.
