The common locus of $g_s$ and $g_{s+1}$ mentioned in the question is an example. If you blow up the origin, and p is a point of the strict transform X on the exceptional divisor, then one can read smoothness of X at p (and the tangent hyperplane $T_p X$) from $g_s$ and $g_{s+1}$ together. Under some genericity conditions one should be able to read the tangent cones also, I guess. | |
