Abstract
We prove that the set of non-degenerate second order maximally superintegrable systems in the complex Euclidean plane carries a natural structure of a projective variety, equipped with a linear isometry group action. This is done by deriving an explicit system of homogeneous algebraic equations. We then solve these equations and give a detailed analysis of the algebraic geometric structure of the corresponding projective variety. This naturally associates a unique planar line triple arrangement to every superintegrable system, providing a geometric realisation of this variety and an intrinsic labelling scheme. In particular, our results confirm the known classification by independent, purely algebraic means.
