In the previous paper by Pereira and the author, it was proved that any pencil of plane curves of degree greater than one with irreducible generic fiber can have at most five completely reducible fibers although no examples with five such…

We study linear systems cut out by cones of fixed degree on a smooth complex curve $C\subset\mathbb{P}^{3}$. We develop a systematic study of the families of such systems, considering their limits, their infinitesimal behaviour and some…

In this paper, the problem of bounding the number of reducible curves in a pencil of algebraic plane curves is addressed. Unlike most of the previous related works, each reducible curve of the pencil is here counted with its appropriate…

We consider a question raised by Rudnev: given four pencils of $n$ concurrent lines in $\mathbb R^2$, with the four centres of the pencils non-collinear, what is the maximum possible size of the set of points where four lines meet? Our main…

This paper deals with surfaces with many lines. It is well-known that a cubic contains 27 of them and that the maximal number for a quartic is 64. In higher degree the question remains open. Here we study classical and new constructions of…

We consider relatively minimal fibrations of curves of genus two on rational surfaces whose Picard numbers are not maximal. By birational morphisms, such fibred surfaces are interpreted as pencils of plane curves. We show that only four are…

A degeneration of curves gives rise to an interesting relation between linear systems on curves and on graphs. In this paper, we consider the case of linear pencils and as an application, we obtain some results on pencils on real curves.

In this paper we study the problem of classifying pencils of curves of degree $d$ in $\mathbb{P}^2$ using geometric invariant theory. We consider the action of $SL(3)$ and we relate the stability of a pencil to the stability of its…

We consider the general problem of enumerating branched covers of the projective line from a fixed general curve subject to ramification conditions at possibly moving points. Our main computations are in genus 1; the theory of limit linear…

Let $\mathcal{L}$ be a pencil of plane curves defined over $\mathbb{F}_q$ with no $\mathbb{F}_q$-points in its base locus. We investigate the number of curves in $\mathcal{L}$ whose $\mathbb{F}_q$-points form a blocking set. When the degree…

Analogously as in classical algebraic geometry, linear pencils of tropical plane curves are parameterized by tropical lines in a coefficient space. A special example of such a linear pencil is the set of tropical plane curves with an…

We study linear pencils of curves on normal surface singularities. Using the minimal good resolution of the pencil, we describe the topological type of generic elements of the pencil and characterize the behaviour of special elements. Then…

We give geometric ways to determine the cross ratio of conics in a pencil using elementary projective geometry.

In this note we investigate three new pencils of symmetric surfaces in complex projective three-space. These have degree 6, 8 resp. 12 and are invariant under the action of subgroups of SO(4) containing the Heisenberg group. The pencils of…

To a generic configuration of eight points in convex position in the plane, we associate a list consisting of the following information: for all of the 56 conics determined by five of the points, we specify the position of each remaining…

A real algebraic plane curve $A$ is said to be dividing if its real part $\mathbb{R}A$ disconnects its complex part $\mathbb{C}A$. A pencil of curves is totally real with respect to $A$ if it has only real intersections with $\mathbb{C}A$.…

We present an explicit parametrization of the families of lines of the Dwork pencil of quintic threefolds. This gives rise to isomorphic curves which parametrize the lines. These curves are 125:1 covers of certain genus six curves. These…

Suppose there are $n$ harmonic pencils of lines given in the plane. We are interested in the question whether certain triples of these lines are concurrent or if triples of intersection points of these lines are collinear, provided that we…

Let $\calP$ be a general pencil of curves of degree $d$ in the projective plane. In this paper we review the computation of the number of curves in $\calP$ that have a hyperflex line, a flex bitangent line or a tritangent line. Then we…

The main aim of the note is to provide an upper-bound for the characteristic number of conic-line arrangements with ordinary singularities in the complex projective plane.
