Abstract In this paper, we introduce the T-function, T(s), which is a polynomial defined by means of a univariate resultant constructed from a given parametrization of an algebraic space curve . It is shown that , where are polynomials (the fibre functions) whose roots are the fibre of the ordinary singularities of multiplicity . Therefore, a complete classification of the singularities of , via the factorization of a resultant, is obtained.
