Fundamental group of plane curves and related invariants

The article under review contains a study of the topology of a pair (P2,C), where C is an algebraic curve in the complex projective plane. The basic problem is to find invariants which are sensitive enough to distinguish many pairs, and for which there is an algorithm for checking this. The homology...
