Abstract

We aim to contribute to the problem of finding desingularisations of codimension-1 holomorphic foliations in arbitrary ambient dimension. To this end, we prove an alternate characterisation of simple singularities, which leads to an equivalent condition for the existence of a desingularisation in the non-dicritical case. We then give some results and conjectures to show when this condition is satisfied.
