Abstract
Given a smooth complex projective variety X and an ample line bundle \(\mathcal{L}\) on it, one can associate the Hilbert curve with \((X,\mathcal{L})\). This is a plane affine algebraic curve, whose equation depends only on the numerical characters of X and \(\mathcal{L}\). In particular, two numerically equivalent ample line bundles on X lead to the same Hilbert curve. Focusing on the case of surfaces, in this paper we investigate how far the converse is from being true.
