Abstract

We prove the sharp bound of at most $64$ lines on projective quartic surfaces $S \subset \mathbb{P}^3(\mathbb{C})$ (resp. affine quartics $S \subset \mathbb{C}^3$) that are not ruled by lines. We study configurations of lines on certain non-$K3$ surfaces of degree four and give various examples of singular quartics with many lines.
