We consider a punctured sphere of negative Euler characteristic, and a collection of essential, simple arcs between the punctures. It was already known that if the arcs in the collection pairwise intersect at most once, then there is a sharp upper bound of 2|χ|(|χ|+1) arcs in the collection. In this paper we prove that for arcs pairwise intersecting at most twice, the upper bound is |χ|(|χ|+1)(|χ|+2). To obtain this result, we consider a case where the punctured sphere has a single, distinguished puncture, and the arcs in the collection each run from this distinguished puncture to any of the other punctures on the sphere, and pairwise intersect at most once. In this case, the upper bound is |χ|(|χ|+1).Nous considérons une sphère perforé ave...
