      <title>Primarily it is not a Maple</title>
      <link>http://www.mapleprimes.com/questions/41577-Laurent-Series?ref=Feed:MaplePrimes:Laurent series:Comments#answer77541</link>
      <itunes:summary>Primarily it is not a Maple problem and IIRC it goes like this:

f smooth in 0 implies there is a w in the ring s.th. k[x,y] = k[w,f]
is a local isomorphism and it induces ring/(f) = k[w] in 0 (this is what
you call the embedding, but it is achieved that way). 

Essentially this follows from the implicite function theorem.

Geometrically it means: if the curve is smooth you have a (local) tangent,
a complementary vector spans the space. Which are your new coordinates.

One has to be a bit carefully since you are in characteristic p &gt; 0.

For the final step - Laurent series - be careful, not sure whether Maple
needs 1/n! which is not given in your case. What you mean is the completed
local ring (a limit construction) to which the stuff always embeds. Then
the Laurent series are the quotient field (as your local ring is integer).

I am not aware of a directly applicable package, may be you dig for
'abstract algebra' and Maple, may be http://mihailovs.com/Alec/  . 

Or other CAS software dedicated to commutative algebra / algebraic geometry.

But if you write down the Math then it should translatable to Maple later,
i think it allows finite fields (do not know whether abstract or only for
explicit cases).</itunes:summary>

      <itunes:summary>No series expansion needed I think, it should be all in the context
of finite series, the rest are formal embeddings.</itunes:summary>
