The Chord Construction
From MaRDI portal
Abstract: Let F be a smooth plane curve of degree 3. Let gb be an element in Pic(F)[2]-{0}. Let us define F':={ol{p(p+gb)}|p in F}subset(P^2)^*. In this note we show that F' is a smooth embedding of F/gb. Moreover, let gb' be the generator of Pic(F)/gb, and let p in F be a flex, then ol{p(p+gb)}+gb' is a flex on F'. We present two proofs.
