โฆ Synopsis
In this paper we determine a new upper bound for the regularity index of fat points of (P^{2}), without requiring any geometric condition on the points. This bound is intermediate between Segre's bound, that holds for points in the general position, and the more general bound, that is attained when the points are collinear: in fact, both of these bounds can be recovered as particular cases. Furthermore, our bound cannot, in general, be sharpened: in fact, it is attained if there are either many collinear points or collinear points with high multiplicities. : 1994 Academic Press, Inc.

In this paper rooted loopless (near) 4-regular maps on surfaces such as the sphere and the projective plane are counted and exact formulae with up to three or four parameters for such maps are given. Several classical results on regular maps and one-faced maps are deduced.
We construct by computer all of the hyperovals in the 22 known projective planes of order 16. Our most interesting result is that four of the planes contain no hyperovals, thus providing counterexamples to the old conjecture that every finite projective plane contains an oval.
The oriented configuration space X + 6 of six points on the real projective line is a noncompact three-dimensional manifold which admits a unique complete hyperbolic structure of finite volume with ten cusps. On the other hand, it decomposes naturally into 120 cells each of which can be interpreted
The flag geometry 1=(P, L, I) of a finite projective plane 6 of order s is the generalized hexagon of order (s, 1) obtained from 6 by putting P equal to the set of all flags of 6, by putting L equal to the set of all points and lines of 6, and where I is the natural incidence relation (inverse conta
