Abstract
We generalize the Plucker formula for the number of inflection points of a complex projective curve and derive a formula for the number of sextatic points of such a curve. We also obtain an upper estimate for the number of vertices of a real algebraic curve. The proof uses a new result related with integration on the Euler characteristic. Bibliography: 5 titles.
