)
still remain unanswered problem. There is an huge effort on this subject. In this
thesis, we study plane sextic curves with a type E7 singular point, try to state
a geometric approach to compute the fundamental groups of plane sextics with
that type of singular points and develop a trick to find the commutant of these
groups.Aktaş, Mehmet EminM.S
