1 | Ellingson, Drew | Bitangent lines to planar quartic curves in algebraic and tropical geometry | Bitangents are lines which are tangent to a curve at two points. The bitangents of a classical quartic are well understood, and a result originally due to Cayley tells us that there are always precisely 28 bitangents to a generic quartic plane curve. When looking at Tropical Geometry, the situation ... | Tropical geometry; Curves, Quartic; Curves, Algebraic; Bitangents | 2015-04 |
