Abstract
We provide a lower bound on the degree of curves of the projective plane $\mathbb{P}^2$ passing through the centers of a divisorial valuation $ν$ of $\mathbb{P}^2$ with prescribed multiplicities, and an upper bound for the Seshadri-type constant of $ν$, $\hatμ(ν)$, constant that is crucial in the Nagata-type valuative conjecture. We also give some results related to the bounded negativity conjecture concerning those rational surfaces having the projective plane as a relatively minimal model.
