We study the moduli spaces and compute the fundamental groups of plane sextics of torus type with the set of inner singularities $2\bold{A}_8$ or $\bold{A}_{17}$. We also compute the fundamental groups of a number of other sextics, both of…

We give a classification up to equisingular deformation and compute the fundamental groups of maximizing plane sextics with a type $\mathbf{E}_6$ singular point.

We compute the fundamental groups of five maximizing sextics with double singular points only; in four cases, the groups are as expected. The approach used would apply to other sextics as well, given their equations.

We construct explicit geometric models for and compute the fundamental groups of all plane sextics with simple singularities only and with at least one type $\bold E_8$ singular point. In particular, we discover four new sextics with…

The second author classified configurations of the singularities on tame sextics of torus type. In this paper, we give a complete classification of the singularities on irreducible sextics of torus type, without assuming the tameness of the…

We compute the fundamental group of the complement of each irreducible sextic of weight eight or nine (in a sense, the largest groups for irreducible sextics), as well as of 169 of their derivatives (both of and not of torus type). We also…

We compute the fundamental group of moduli spaces of Lie group valued representations of surface and torus groups.

We show that the fundamental group of the complement of any irreducible tame torus sextics in $\bf P^2$ is isomorphic to $\bf Z_2*\bf Z_3$ except one class. The exceptional class has the configuration of the singularities $\{C_{3,9},3A_2\}$…

We analyze irreducible plane sextics whose fundamental group factors to $D_{14}$. We produce explicit equations for all curves and show that, in the simplest case of the set of singularities $3A_6$, the group is $D_{14}\times Z_3$.

We develop a geometric approach to the study of plane sextics with a triple singular point. As an application, we give an explicit geometric description of all irreducible maximal sextics with a type $\bold E_7$ singular point and compute…

We give a complete classsification of reduced sextics of torus type with configurations of the singularities and the geometry of the components.

This work is concerned with the calculation of the fundamental group of torus knots. Torus knots are special types of knots which wind around a torus a number of times in the longitudinal and meridional directions. We compute and describe…

We complete the equisingular deformation classification of irreducible singular plane sextic curves. As a by-product, we also compute the fundamental groups of the complement of all but a few maximizing sextics.

Let S be a surface of genus g with n points removed, G a connected Lie group, and X(G) the moduli space of representations of the fundamental group of S into G. We compute the fundamental group of X(G) when n>0 and G is a real or complex…

We compute the fundamental groups of all irreducible plane sextics constituting classical Zariski pairs

We calculate the fundamental groups $\pi=\pi_1(P^2\setminus B)$ for all irreducible plane sextics $B\subset\P^2$ with simple singularities for which $\pi$ is known to admit a dihedral quotient $D_{10}$. All groups found are shown to be…

We study fundamental groups of algebraic stacks. We show that these fundamental groups carry an additional structure coming from the inertia groups. Then use this additional structure to analyze geometric/ topological properties of stacks.…

We construct some canonically defined central extensions of groups of symplectomorphisms. We show that this central extension is nontrivial in the case of a torus of dimension $\ge 6$ and in the case of a two-dimensional surface of genus…

The complete list of reducible sextics of torus type with simple singularities is known in our previous paper. In this paper, we give a complete list of existence and non-existence of Zariski partner sextics of non-torus type corresponding…

*This paper is from 2018* In this paper, we try to classify moduli spaces of arrangements of $12$ lines with sextic points. We show that moduli spaces of arrangements of $12$ lines with sextic points can consist of more than two connected…
