of a planar curve $F(x,y)=0$
A singular point at which the partial derivatives of order up to and including $n$ vanish, but where at least one partial derivative of order $n+1$ does not vanish. For example, if $F(x_0,y_0)=0$, $F_x'(x_0,y_0)=0$, $F_{yy}''(x_0,y_0)$ does not vanish, the multiple point $M(x_0,y_0)$ is called a double point; if the first and second partial derivatives vanish at $M(x_0,y_0)$, but at least one third derivative does not, the multiple point is called a triple point; etc.
