Michael Friedman, Mina Teicher
We argue that for a smooth surface S, considered as a ramified cover over the projective plane branched over a nodal-cuspidal curve B one could use the structure of the fundamental…

The Regeneration Of A 5-Point
Michael Friedman, Mina Teicher
The braid monodromy factorization of the branch curve of a surface of general type is known to be an invariant that completely determines the diffeomorphism type of the surface. Ca…
