This paper undertakes the study of the topology of T-manifolds of arbitrary codimension obtained by combinatorial patchworking with real phase structure as described by Brugall\'e, L\'opez de Medrano and Rau (2024). We prove new bounds on…
It is known for a long time that a nonsingular real algebraic curve of degree 2k in the projective plane cannot have more than 7/2*k^2-9/4*k+3/2$ even ovals. We show here that this upper bound is asymptotically sharp, that is to say we…
We prove that a smooth, complex plane curve $C$ of odd degree can be defined by a polynomial with real coefficients if and only if $C$ is isomorphic to its complex conjugate. Counterexamples are known for curves of even degree. More…
We enumerate the singular algebraic curves in a complete linear system on a smooth projective surface. The system must be suitably ample in a rather precise sense. The curves may have up to eight nodes, or a triple point of a given type and…
We address the problem of the maximal finite number of real points of a real algebraic curve (of a given degree and, sometimes, genus) in the projective plane. We improve the known upper and lower bounds and construct close to optimal…
The restrictions on the topology of nonsingular plane projective real algebraic curves of odd degree, obtained by O. Viro and the author in the paper published in the early 90s, are extended to flexible curves lying on an almost complex…
The addendum updates the results presented in the paper `Fake Projective Plane, Invent Math 168, 321-370 (2007)' and makes some additions and corrections. The fake projective planes are classified into twenty six classes. Together with a…
We construct a polynomial of degree d in two variables whose Hessian curve has (d-2)^2 connected components using Viro patchworking. In particular, this implies the existence of a smooth real algebraic surface of degree d in RP^3 whose…
In this paper we obtain an explicit formula for the number of degree d curves in two dimensional complex projective space, passing through (d(d+3)/2 -k) generic points and having a codimension k singularity, where k is at most 7. In the…
A rigid isotopy of real algebraic curves of a certain class is a path in the space of curves of this class. The paper's study completes the rigid isotopic classification of nonsingular real algebraic curves of bidegree (4,3) on a…
For a smooth plane cubic $B$, we count curves $C$ of degree $d$ such that the normalizations of $C\backslash B$ are isomorphic to $\Bbb A^1$, for $d\leq7$ (for $d=7$ under some assumption). We also count plane rational quartic curves…
A fake projective plane is a smooth complex surface which is not the complex projective plane but has the same Betti numbers as the complex projective plane. The first example of such a surface was constructed by David Mumford in 1979 using…
In this article we focus on the study of special parabolic points in surfaces arising as graphs of polynomials, we give a theorem of Viro's patchworking type to build families of real polynomials in two variables with a prescribed number of…
The Severi variety $V_{d,n}$ of plane curves of a given degree $d$ and exactly $n$ nodes admits a map to the Hilbert scheme $\mathbb{P}^{2[n]}$ of zero-dimensional subschemes of $\mathbb{P}^2$ of degree $n$. This map assigns to every curve…
We present a certified algorithm based on subdivision for computing an isotopic approximation to any number of curves in the plane. Our algorithm is based on the certified curve approximation algorithm of Plantinga and Vegter. The main…

We study the following question: given a set P of 3d-2 points and an immersed curve G in the real plane R^2, all in general position, how many real rational plane curves of degree d pass through these points and are tangent to this curve.…
We complete the proof of a theorem we announced and partly proved in [Math. Nachr. 271 (2004), 69-90, math.AG/0111299]. The theorem concerns a family of curves on a family of surfaces. It has two parts. The first was proved in that paper.…
We prove two inequalities for the complex orientations of a separating (Type I) non-singular real algebraic curve in $RP^2$ of any odd degree. We also construct a separating non-singular pseudoholomorphic curve in $RP^2$ of any degree…
We prove an elementary method to classify, up to rigid isotopy, all nodal degree 4 real rational curves in $\mathbb{RP}^2$ that have only real double points. We show how to associate a chord diagram to a nodal real degree 4 planar rational…
