Abstract

The notion of conelike point is introduced, and many hypersurface singularities are shown to be conelike. Let R be the local ring of a conelike singularity on an algebraic surface in characteristic p, and K = qf( R). We show that, in general, the map on Brauer groups Br( R) → Br( K) has nontrivial p-torsion kernel.
