Using the theory of adjoints and pluricanonical adjoints, we construct three nonsingular threefolds, as desingularizations of degree six hypersurfaces in ${\mathbb{P}}^4$, having the irregularities $q_1=q_2=0$ and the following periodical sequences of plurigenera respectively $$(p_g,P_2,P_3,\mathrm{\dots },P_m,\mathrm{\dots })=(0,0,1,0,0,1,\mathrm{\dots }),(0,0,0,1,0,0,0,1,\mathrm{\dots }),(0,0,0,0,1,0,0,0,0,1,\mathrm{\dots }).$$In the Appendix, starting from the second above-mentioned example, we construct a threefold of general type with $q{q}_1=q_2=0,p_g=1$, $P_2=2$ whose m-canonical transformation is birational if and only if $m\ge 11$.

We construct an irreducible degree 10 plane curve $C_{10}$, giving the explicit equation with real coefficients, having six [3; 3] points that are not on a conic. The fairly simple equation of $C_{10}$ enables the shape of a curve, whose equation has been researched without success since 1932, to be visualized in the real plane.
