High-school algebra of the theory of dicritical divisors: atypical   fibres for special pencils and polynomials
  In this work we deal with dicritical divisors, curvettes and polynomials. These objects have been one of the main research interests of S.S. Abhyankar during his last years. In this work we provide some elementary proofs of some S.S. Abhyankar and I. Luengo results for dicriticals in the framework of formal power series. Based on these ideas we give a constructive way to find the atypical fibres of a special pencil and give bounds for its number, which are sharper than the existing ones. Finally, we answer a question of J. Gwo\'zdziewicz finding polynomials that reach his bound.
