Yoshihara's conjecture on complements of irreducible plane curves
Yoshihara's conjecture on complements of irreducible plane curves
Let be an algebraically closed field of arbitrary characteristic, and let be irreducible curves. Two such curves are projectively equivalent if an automorphism of sends to . Suppose that
is an isomorphism between their complements.
Yoshihara's conjecture. Then and are projectively equivalent.
The conjecture asserts that the complement of an irreducible plane curve determines the curve up to projective equivalence. It is refuted: a counterexample was given by Blanc in 2009.
