This is a survey on Zariski equisingularity. We recall its definition, main properties, and a variety of applications in Algebraic Geometry and Singularity Theory. In the first part of this survey, we consider Zariski equisingular families…
In this paper, we give a Zariski triple of the arrangements for a smooth quartic and its four bitangents. A key criterion to distinguish the topology of such curves is given by a matrix related to the height pairing of rational points…
In this paper, we study the geometry of two-torsion points of elliptic curves in order to distinguish the embedded topology of reducible plane curves consisting of a smooth cubic and its tangent lines. As a result, we obtain a new family of…
In this work, we establish two main results in the context of arithmetic and geometric properties of plane curves. First, we construct numerous new examples of arithmetic Zariski pairs and multiplets, where only a few ones were previously…
A classical result asserts that the complex projective plane modulo complex conjugation is the 4-dimensional sphere. We generalize this result in two directions by considering the projective planes over the normed real division algebras and…
Given a duo module $M$ over an associative (not necessarily commutative) ring $R,$ a Zariski topology is defined on the spectrum $\mathrm{Spec}^{\mathrm{fp}}(M)$ of {\it fully prime} $R$-submodules of $M$. We investigate, in particular, the…
We study arrangements of intervals in $\mathbb{R}^2$ for which many pairs form trapezoids. We show that any set of intervals forming many trapezoids must have underlying algebraic structure, which we characterise. This leads to some…
This paper addresses a very classical topic that goes back at least to Pl\"ucker: how to understand a plane curve singularity using its polar curves. Here, we explicitly construct the singular points of a plane curve singularity directly…
In the 1970s O. Zariski introduced a general theory of equisingularity for algebroid and algebraic hypersurfaces over an algebraically closed field of characteristic zero. His theory builds up on understanding the dimensionality type of…
We construct new examples of singular projective plane curves whose complements have finite and non-abelian fundamental groups, by generalizing the classical three cuspidal quartic curve discovered by Zariski.
We introduce an algorithm that exploits a combinatorial symmetry of an arrangement in order to produce a geometric reflection between two disconnected components of its moduli space. We apply this method to disqualify three real examples…
A framework is developed to describe the Zariski topologies on the prime and primitive spectra of a quantum algebra $A$ in terms of the (known) topologies on strata of these spaces and maps between the collections of closed sets of…
In this work, we study a family of Cremona transformations of weighted projective planes which generalize the standard Cremona transformation of the projective plane. Starting from special plane projective curves we construct families of…
We give several constructions of bicuspidal rational complex projective plane curves, and list the Newton pairs and the multiplicity sequences of the singularities on the resulting curves. Although the existence of some of the listed cusp…
We derive explicit defining equations for a number of irreducible maximizing plane sextics with double singular points only. For most real curves, we also compute the fundamental group of the complement; all groups found are abelian. As a…
In a previous work, the third named author found a combinatorics of line arrangements whose realizations live in the cyclotomic group of the fifth roots of unity and such that their non-complex-conjugate embedding are not topologically…
We extend results of Cogolludo-Agustin and Libgober relating the Alexander polynomial of a plane curve $C$ with the Mordell--Weil rank of certain isotrivial families of jacobians over $\mathbf{P}^2$ of discriminant $C$. In the second part…
We introduce a new topological invariant of complex line arrangements in the complex projective plane, derived from the interaction between their complement and the boundary of a regular neighbourhood. The motivation is to identify Zariski…
We construct pairs of elliptic curves over number fields with large intersection of projective torsion points.
We study the embedded topology of certain conic-line arrangements of degree 7. Two new examples of Zariski pairs are given. Furthermore, we determine the number of connected components of the conic-line arrangements. We also calculate the…
