Abstract
Let be a plane curve. We give a procedure based on Abhyankar's approximate roots to detect if it has a single place at infinity, and if so construct its associated -sequence, and consequently its value semigroup. Also for fixed genus (equivalently Frobenius number) we construct all -sequences generating numerical semigroups with this given genus. For a -sequence we present a procedure to construct all curves having this associated sequence. We also study the embeddings of such curves in the plane. In particular, we prove that polynomial curves might not have a unique embedding.
