A term of endearment used by algebraic topologists when talking about their favorite power tools such as Abelian groups, bundles, homology groups, homotopy groups, K-theory, ...

H=|aa^'a^('')|a_(x^(n-2))a_(x^(n-2))^'a_(x^(n-2))^('')=0. The nonsingular inflections of a curve are its nonsingular intersections with the Hessian.

Let Gamma be an algebraic curve in a projective space of dimension n, and let p be the prime ideal defining Gamma, and let chi(p,m) be the number of linearly independent ...

Every modular system has a modular system basis consisting of a finite number of polynomials. Stated another way, for every order n there exists a nonsingular curve with the ...

The branch of algebraic topology which deals with homotopy groups. Homotopy methods can be used to solve systems of polynomials by embedding the polynomials in a family of ...

The Jacobian of a linear net of curves of order n is a curve of order 3(n-1). It passes through all points common to all curves of the net. It is the locus of points where ...

The Jacobian group of a one-dimensional linear series is given by intersections of the base curve with the Jacobian curve of itself and two curves cutting the series.

Any linear system of point-groups on a curve with only ordinary singularities may be cut by adjoint curves.

If two curves phi and psi of multiplicities r_i!=0 and s_i!=0 have only ordinary points or ordinary singular points and cusps in common, then every curve which has at least ...

Any irreducible curve may be carried by a factorable Cremona transformation into one with none but ordinary singular points.
