<Michela Artebani> works on <algebraic geometry>. Her joint paper with <Igor Dolgachev> examines the <Hesse pencil> of plane cubic <algebraic curves>, its flex configuration and associated <K3 surfaces>.<The Hesse pencil of plane cubic curves by Michela Artebani and Igor Dolgachev>[Original byline and abstract]{ref}
A useful feature of the example is that a smooth cubic and its Hessian belong to a tightly organized family. Incidences among the nine common points and twelve distinguished lines expose symmetries that are harder to see in an arbitrary cubic equation. Their treatment connects explicit coordinates with the global geometry of surfaces.<The Hesse pencil of plane cubic curves by Michela Artebani and Igor Dolgachev>[Section 2, Hesse equations and configuration]{ref}
