Counting the hyperplane sections with fixed invariants of a plane quintic

Algebraic Geometry 2011-09-28 v2

Abstract

We use three different methods to count the number of lines in the plane whose intersection with a fixed general quintic has fixed cross-ratios. We compare and contrast these methods, shedding light on some classical ideas which underly modern techniques.
