Abstract:
A very general surface of degree at least four in $\mathbb {P}^{3}$ contains no curves other than intersections with surfaces. We find a formula for the degree of the locus of surfaces in $\mathbb {P}^{3}$ of degree at least five which contain some elliptic quartic curves. We also compute the degree of the locus of quartic surfaces containing an elliptic quartic curve, a case not covered by that formula.References
