%0 Book Section %T Classification of rational unicuspidal projective curves whose singularities have one Puiseux pair publisher Birkhauser Boston %D 2007 %U 3-7643-7775-5 %@ https://hdl.handle.net/20.500.14352/53147 %X It is a very old and interesting open problem to characterize those collections of embedded topological types of local plane curve singularities which may appear as singularities of a projective plane curve C of degree d. The goal of the present article is to give a complete (topological) classification of those cases when C is rational and it has a unique singularity which is locally irreducible (i.e., C is unicuspidal) with one Puiseux pair. %~
