A weighted version of Zariski's hyperplane section theorem and fundamental groups of complements of plane curves
arXiv:alg-geom/9505004
Abstract
We formulate and prove a weighted version of Zariski's hyperplane section theorem on the topological fundamental groups of the complements of hypersurfaces in a projective space. As an application, we calculate fundamental groups of the complements of certain singular projective plane curves.
