Piontkowski's three-cusp conjecture for rational cuspidal plane curves
Let be a rational cuspidal plane curve of degree . The source identifies three specific series of tricuspidal curves in a table. Piontkowski's conjecture. If , then has at most three cusps; moreover, the curves of degree with precisely three cusps occur in those three series. This conjecture was proposed after investigating almost all cuspidal curves of degree at most ; the source does not state that it has been proved or disproved.
