An (n k) configuration is a set of n points and n lines such that each point lies on k lines while each line contains k points. The configuration is geometric, topological, or combinatorial depending on whether lines are considered to be straight lines, pseudolines, or just combinatorial lines. The existence and enumeration of (n k) configurations for a given k has been subject to active research. A current front of research concerns geometric (n 4) configurations: it is now known that geometric (n 4) configurations exist for all n ≥ 18, apart from sporadic exceptional cases. In this paper, we settle by computational techniques the first open case of (19 4) configurations: we obtain all topological (19 4) configurations among which none are geometrically realizable.
