121 Patchworked Curves of Degree Seven

The 121 real schemes, i.e., ambient isotopy classes, of smooth real plane algebraic curves of degree seven were classified by Viro (1984). By constructing one patchwork of the dilated triangle $7\cdot {\mathrm{\Delta }}_2$ for each real scheme, we provide an explicit method for constructing polynomials realizing each real scheme. In particular, every real scheme of degree seven can be realized as a T-curve; this settles a question raised by Itenberg and Viro (1996).
