Abstract
Let k be a field of arbitrary characteristic p ≥ 0 and C a curve defined over k with only one branch at infinity, that is, a projective absolutely irreducible plane curve with resolution over k for which there is a line (line at infinity) intersecting C in only one point P, and C has only one analytic branch at P.
