Abstract

In these notes we study properties of the multiplicity at points of a variety X over a perfect field. We focus on properties that can be studied using ramification method, such as discriminants and some generalized discriminants that we shall introduce. We also show how these methods lead to an alternative proof of resolution of singularities for varieties over fields of characteristic zero.
