Abhyankar-Moh Semigroups for arbitrary hypersurfaces

For an arbitrary hypersurface singularity, we construct a family of semigroups associated with algebraically closed fields that arise as an infinite union of rings of series.

These semigroups extend the value semigroup of a plane curve studied by Abhyankar and Moh.

The algebraically closed fields under consideration possess a natural valuation that induces a corresponding value semigroup.

We establish the necessary conditions under which these semigroups are independent of the choice of the root.

Moreover, the extensions proposed by P.

González and Kiyek-Micus, where González specifically addresses the case of quasi-ordinary singularities, and the extension introduced by Abbas-Assi, can be understood as particular instances within our constructed family.
