There is an huge effort on this subject. In this thesis, we study plane sextic curves with a type E7 singular point, try to state a geometric approach to compute the fundamental groups of plane sextics with that type of singular points and develop a trick to find the commutant of these groups.ix, 31 leavesEnglishinfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccesstrigonal curvedessinj-invariantfundamental groupQA567 .A58 2011Curves, Sextic.Curves, Plane.Thesis
