Low degree points on singular plane curves

Abstract

The purpose of this paper is to study low degree points on plane curves. We prove results analogous to those of Debarre and Klassen for singular plane curves with a finite number $\hat{I}´$ of ordinary nodes/cusps, where $\hat{I}´$ is bounded from above by a quadratic function in the degree of the plane curve.
