of degree 8 with 168 real nodes, found by . , it remained the record-holder for the most number of real nodes for its degree;
however, the best proven upper bound, 174, does not match the lower bound given by this surface.

__NOTOC__
In algebraic geometry, a Barth surface is one of the complex nodal surfaces in 3 dimensions with large numbers of double points found by . Two examples are the Barth sextic of degree 6 with 65 double points, and the Barth decic of degre ...

Sarti surface
In algebraic geometry, a Sarti surface is a degree-12 nodal surface with 600 nodes, found by . The maximal possible number of nodes of a degree-12 surface is not known (as of 2015), though Yoichi Miyaoka showed that it is at most 645.
Sarti has ...
