Discriminantly separable polynomials and quad-equations (Q2514338)

In this article, the family of discriminantly separable polynomials in three variables of degree two in each of them are classified. All these discriminants (as polynomials of two variables) are factorized as products of two polynomials of one variable each. This classification is based on the study of structures of zeros of a polynomial component \(P\) of a discriminant. This classification is related to the classification of pencils of conics in a delicate way. In conclusion, a relationship between the presented classification and the classification of integrable quad-equations which has been suggested recently by Adler, Bobenko, and Suris is established.
