The marked double in the next tame Tate branch #

Let an integral short Weierstrass equation over the valuation ring of an adic completion have standard cuspidal special fibre. After the first coefficient split, suppose the quotient of a₄ by a uniformizer has nonzero residue. This file proves the precise pointwise consequence needed downstream: the double of every local point has canonical nonsingular reduction.

For a point specializing to the cusp, the tangent numerator has valuation exactly one. If the ordinate has valuation at least two, the tangent slope has a pole and the double belongs to the formal kernel. Otherwise the slope is an integral unit, and the double reduces to (lambda^2, -lambda^3) on Y² = X³, away from its singular origin. No Kodaira symbol, strict-transform assertion, regular model, or component-cardinality statement is made.
