Attributes of Genus One Models
- DefiningEquations(model): ModelG1 -> [ RngMPolElt ]
A sequence containing the equations by which the given genus one model (which must have degree 2, 3, or 4) is defined.
- Equations(model): ModelG1 -> [ RngMPolElt ]
A sequence containing equations for the scheme associated to the given genus one model (of any degree). For degree 2, 3, or 4 this is the same as
DefiningEquations.
- Curve(model): ModelG1 -> Crv
- HyperellipticCurve(model): ModelG1 -> CrvHyp
- QuadricIntersection(model): ModelG1 -> Crv
The curve associated to the given genus one model.
In the degree \(2\) case the curve is hyperelliptic of the form \(y^2 + f(x,z) y - g(x,z) = 0\), but is only created explicitly as a hyperelliptic curve when
HyperellipticCurveis called; otherwise it is created as a general curve in a weighted projective space in which the variables \(x\), \(z\), and \(y\) have weights 1, 1, and 2).In the degree 4 case the curve is an intersection of two quadrics in \({\mathbb{P}}^3\).
An error results in degenerate cases where the equations of the model do not define a curve
- Matrices(model): ModelG1 -> [ AlgMatElt ]
For a genus one model of degree 4 this function returns a sequence containing two \(4 \times 4\) symmetric matrices representing the quadrics.
