Abstract

Given a collection of ll general lines 1,,l\ell_1,\ldots,\ell_{l} in \pr2\pr^2, the star configuration \XX(l)\XX(l) is the set of points constructed from all pairwise intersections of these lines. For each non-negative integer dd, we compute the dimension of the family of curves of degree dd that contain a star configuration.
