Variations on Pascal's theorem
Elementary questions in algebraic geometry (14A25) Special algebraic curves and curves of low genus (14H45) Projective techniques in algebraic geometry (14N05) Classical problems, Schubert calculus (14N15) Configurations and arrangements of linear subspaces (14N20) Varieties of low degree (14N25) Computational aspects of higher-dimensional varieties (14Q15)
The authors deal with potential generalizations, or better variations, of Pascal's Theorem. In the first part of the introduction, they precisely describe what a variation of Pascal's Theorem means; called Pascal type theorem.\N\NA computer algebra approach is presented to state the original Pascal Theorem. Also, the problem of characterizing points on rational normal curves is considered, giving a condition for \(d+4\) points to lie on one of these curves; their statement simplifies the Caminata-Schaffler statement.\N\NIn addition, they deal with the case of ten points on a quadric surface in \(\mathbb P^3\); providing partial results.\N\NFinally the case of five lines on quadrics in \(\mathbb P^4\) is considered, and they re-prove the Richmond-Segre-Brown result using computer algebra methods.
