Abstract

A $\Bbbk$-configuration is a set of points $\mathbb{X}$ in $\mathbb{P}^{2}$ that satisfies a number of geometric conditions. Associated to a $\Bbbk$-configuration is a sequence $(d_{1},\ldots,d_{s})$ of positive integers, called its type, which encodes many of its homological invariants. We distinguish $\Bbbk$-configurations by counting the number of lines that contain $d_{s}$ points of $\mathbb{X}$. In particular, we show that for all integers $m\gg0$, the number of such lines is precisely the value of $\Delta\mathbf{H}_{m\mathbb{X}}(md_{s}-1)$. Here, $\Delta\mathbf{H}_{m\mathbb{X}}(-)$ is the first difference of the Hilbert function of the fat points of multiplicity $m$ supported on $\mathbb{X}$.
