ABSTRACT
Several types of complex algebraic threefolds are constructed. They are based on solutions of a second-order linear partial differential equation. The solutions are related to a one-parameter family of polynomials associated with configurations of real lines in the plane. Some of the polynomials produce hypersurfaces with many singularities. Particular cases of quintic and sextic threefolds are analyzed. The construction of Calabi–Yau threefolds is based on special types of the line configurations.
