A couple of complex projective plane curves are said to make a Zariski pair if they have the same degree and the same type of singularities, but their embeddings in the projective plane are topologically different. In this paper, we present…
We construct a topological invariant of algebraic plane curves, which is in some sense an adaptation of the linking number of knot theory. This invariant is shown to be a generalization of the I-invariant of line arrangements developed by…
In this paper we study the embedded topology of reducible plane curves having a smooth irreducible component. In previous studies, the relation between the topology and certain torsion classes in the Picard group of degree zero of the…
The purpose of this paper is to exhibit infinite families of conjugate projective curves in a number field whose complement have the same abelian fundamental group, but are non-homeomorphic. In particular, for any $d>3$ we find Zariski…
We formulate and prove a weighted version of Zariski's hyperplane section theorem on the topological fundamental groups of the complements of hypersurfaces in a projective space. As an application, we calculate fundamental groups of the…
In this present paper, we study the splitting of nodal plane curves with respect to contact conics. We define the notion of splitting type of such curves and show that it can be used as an invariant to distinguish the embedded topology of…
There is a close relationship between the embedded topology of complex plane curves and the (group-theoretic) arithmetic of elliptic curves. In a recent paper, we studied the topology of some arrangements of curves which include a special…
A pair of plane curves with the same combinatorics is said to be (a) a Zariski pair if the plane curves have different embedded topology, and (b) a strong Ziegler pair if their Milnor algebra are not isomorphic. We show that some examples…
In this paper, complement-equivalent arithmetic Zariski pairs will be exhibited answering in the negative a question by Eyral-Oka on these curves and their groups. A complement-equivalent arithmetic Zariski pair is a pair of complex…
In this note, we present two pairs of conic-line arrangements admitting a unique conic and that form Zariski pairs, both of degree $9$. Their topologies are distinguished using the connected numbers.
We study, for plane complex branches of genus one, the topological type of its generic polar curve, as a function of the semigroup of values and the Zariski invariant of the branch. We improve some results given by Casas-Alvero in 2023,…
We construct the canonical structure of an irreducible projective variety on the set of connected curves of degree $d$ in $\Bbb P^n$ with rational components (some components can be multiple). The set of rational curves is open subset in…
Using the invariant developed in [6], we differentiate four arrangements with the same combinatorial information but in different deformation classes. From these arrangements, we construct four other arrangements such that there is no…
We show how to obtain the Zariski invariant of a plane branch employing the contact order or the intersection multiplicity with elements in a particular family of curves and we present some consequences of this result.
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 investigate Zariski multiples of plane curves $Z_1, \dots, Z_N$ such that each $Z_i$ is a union of a smooth quartic curve, some of its bitangents, and some of its 4-tangent conics. We show that, for plane curves of this type, the…
This article deals with the study of the birational transformations of the projective complex plane which leave invariant an irreducible algebraic curve. We try to describe the state of art and provide some new results on this subject.
In this paper, we continue the study of the embedded topology of plane algebraic curves. We study the realization space of conic line arrangements of degree $7$ with certain fixed combinatorics and determine the number of connected…
A simple sextic is a reduced complex projective plane curve of degree 6 with only simple singularities. We introduce a notion of Z-splitting curves for the double covering of the projective plane branching along a simple sextic, and…
We study complex plane projective sextic curves with simple singularities up to equisingular deformations. It is shown that two such curves are deformation equivalent if and only if the corresponding pairs are diffeomorphic. A way to…
