M-curves of degree 9 with deep nests

Abstract

The first part of Hilbert's sixteenth problem deals with the classification of the isotopy types realizable by real plane algebraic curves of given degree mm. For m8m \geq 8, one restricts the study to the case of the MM-curves. For m=9m=9, the classification is still wide open. We say that an MM-curve of degree 9 has a deep nest if it has a nest of depth 3. In the present paper, we prohibit 10 isotopy types with deep nests and no outer ovals.
