A Lowitz arc refers to a specific type of arc in the context of singularities in mathematical functions or curves. More particularly, it is associated with certain kinds of algebraic varieties and homological properties in algebraic geometry. In the context of algebraic curves, a Lowitz arc is defined as a formal object that generalizes the notion of a point in algebraic geometry, allowing the study of families of points or infinite branches within a curve or surface.
