“…There was further progress in the study of the complements in higher dimensions on generalizations of Zariski-van Kampen's theorem (cf. [48], [11], [26], [78]). Nevertheless, despite tremendous progress, since the first works by Enriques, Zariski and van Kampen, many problems still remains open and complete understanding of the topology of the complements to curves and hypersurfaces still out of reach.…”
