Atlas.AlgebraicGeometryI.code.Cor21Genus1Group

The arithmetic genus of any affine Weierstrass curve, fixed at 1.

Instances For
    structure IsSmooth_Genus1 {F : Type u_1} [Field F] (W : WeierstrassCurve.Affine F) :

    Predicate witnessing that an affine Weierstrass curve is smooth (elliptic) and of genus 1.

    Instances For

      Every elliptic Weierstrass curve satisfies the IsSmooth_Genus1 predicate.

      @[reducible]

      Corollary 21 (Lec 17): a smooth (elliptic) curve of genus 1 carries a canonical abelian group structure on its points.

      Instances For

        The Abel-Jacobi map Point → Pic⁰ from points on a smooth genus 1 curve to its class group is surjective.

        The Abel-Jacobi map for a smooth genus 1 curve is bijective; combined with its group structure, this realizes the curve as an elliptic curve.
