In [[mathematics]], a '''bullet-nose curve''' is a [[algebraic curve|unicursal quartic curve]] with three [[inflection point]]s, given by the equation
:<math>a^2y^2-b^2x^2=x^2y^2 \,</math>
 
The bullet curve has three double points in the [[real projective plane]], at x=0 and y=0, x=0 and z=0, and y=0 and z=0, and is therefore a unicursal (rational) curve of [[geometric genus|genus]] zero.
 
If
:<math>f(z) = \sum_{n=0}^{\infty} {2n \choose n} z^{2n+1} = z+2z^3+6z^5+20z^7+\cdots</math>
then
:<math>y = f\left(\frac{x}{2a}\right)\pm 2b\ </math>
are the two branches of the bullet curve at the origin.
