Abstract

In this article we obtain the rigid isotopy classification of generic rational curves of degre 55 in RP2\mathbb{R}\mathbb{P}^{2}. In order to study the rigid isotopy classes of nodal rational curves of degree 55 in RP2\mathbb{R}\mathbb{P}^{2}, we associate to every real rational nodal quintic curve with a marked real nodal point a nodal trigonal curve in the Hirzebruch surface Σ3\Sigma_3 and the corresponding nodal real dessin on CP1/(zzˉ)\mathbb{C}\mathbb{P}^{1}/(z\mapsto\bar{z}). The dessins are real versions, proposed by S. Orevkov, of Grothendieck's dessins d'enfants. The dessins are graphs embedded in a topological surface and endowed with a certain additional structure. We study the combinatorial properties and decompositions of dessins corresponding to real nodal trigonal curves CΣnC\subset \Sigma_n in real Hirzebruch surfaces Σn\Sigma_n. Nodal dessins in the disk can be decomposed in blocks corresponding to cubic dessins in the disk D2\mathbf{D}^2, which produces a classification of these dessins. The classification of dessins under consideration leads to a rigid isotopy classification of real rational quintics in RP2\mathbb{R}\mathbb{P}^{2}.
