Abstract
Consider a hyperelliptic curve of genus over a field of characteristic zero. After extending we can view it as a marked curve with its Weierstrass points. We present an explicit algorithm to compute the stable reduction of this marked curve for a valuation of residue characteristic over a finite extension of . In the cases we work out relatively simple conditions for the structure of this reduction.
