The nonsingular group of an additive special Weierstrass cubic #
Over the residue fields at five and eleven, a Weierstrass cubic with vanishing discriminant and
c₄ is cuspidal. This file proves the precise group-theoretic form needed by the tame additive
reduction consumer: its group of nonsingular points is additively equivalent to the residue field.
The proof normalizes the equation to short Weierstrass form, where the two invariant equalities
force the equation to be Y² = X³. The cardinality of that one concrete nonsingular point type is
then checked by finite enumeration over ZMod 5 and ZMod 11. Prime cardinality supplies the
additive group equivalence; no Hasse bound or ellipticity assumption is used.

Instances For
The standard cusp has five nonsingular projective points over F₅.
The standard cusp has eleven nonsingular projective points over F₁₁.
A short Weierstrass equation with vanishing discriminant and c₄ is the standard cusp
in every characteristic different from two and three.
A Weierstrass cubic with vanishing discriminant and c₄ has an affine singular point
whenever two and three are nonzero in the ground field. The proof normalizes to the standard
cusp and transports its origin back through the admissible variable change.
The nonsingular point group of a cuspidal Weierstrass cubic over F₅ is the additive group
of F₅.
