In the third of four lectures we are showing from Dominic Joyce's third year course on Algebraic Curves, we focus on proof of theorem on points in general position with the examples of algebraic curves in C2 and in the projective plane CP2.

You can watch the other lectures from the course here: youtube.com/playlist?list=PL4d5ZtfQonW1Gtcp0w1wCS9PKcxipWaEO

You can watch many other student lectures via our main Student Lectures playlist (also check out specific student lectures playlists): youtube.com/playlist?list=PL4d5ZtfQonW0A4VHeiY0gSkX1QEraaacE

All first and second year lectures are followed by tutorials where students meet their tutor in pairs to go through the lecture and associated problem sheet and to talk and think more about the maths. Third and fourth year lectures are followed by classes.
