In particular, we determine modular equations for the strata in the moduli space $\\Me_3$ of plane quartics which have at least seven hyperflexes, and obtain an computational characterization of curves in these strata.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2006-03-23T06:51:15.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "moduli space", "special strata", "classification", "determine modular equations", "plane quartic curves" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 0, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "2006math......3555G" } } }
