Finite-field and symmetry certificates for the X₁(18) sextic #
The genus-two reduction for order eighteen produces
Y² = X⁶ - 4X⁵ + 10X⁴ - 10X³ + 5X² - 2X + 1.
This file records two independent elementary boundaries.
First, modulo 5, the sextic is separable and has exactly four affine
solutions, all above X = 0 or X = 1. Its monic even-degree infinity
chart has two smooth normalized directions. Their sum is packaged only
as a six-element finite-field point certificate; no projective-curve API
equivalence or reduction theorem is asserted.
Second, over ℚ, the Möbius transformation
X ↦ 1/(1-X)
has order three on the abscissa. Its lift
(X,Y) ↦ (1/(1-X), -Y/(1-X)³)
preserves the sextic and also has order three away from X = 0,1. Two
checked invariant functions satisfy a conic equation. These identities
expose the elementary order-three symmetry used in classical treatments;
they do not construct an endomorphism of the Jacobian or prove its rank.
Rational order-three symmetry #
The order-three Möbius transformation on the abscissa.
Equations
- MazurTorsion.XOneEighteenFiniteField.orderThreeX x = 1 / (1 - x)
Instances For
The order-three lift to the ordinate. The minus sign selects the order-three lift rather than the lift whose cube is the hyperelliptic involution.
Instances For
The sextic is covariant under the Möbius transformation.
The second Möbius iterate in a denominator-safe form.
The Möbius transformation has exact third iterate equal to the identity on its noncuspidal affine domain.
The lifted transformation preserves the hyperelliptic equation.
The selected lift has third iterate equal to the identity on the noncuspidal affine domain.
A rational invariant involving the ordinate.
Equations
- MazurTorsion.XOneEighteenFiniteField.invariantY x y = y / (x * (x - 1))
Instances For
The abscissa invariant is the trace of the three-element Möbius orbit.
The product of the three abscissas in a Möbius orbit is -1.
The first displayed function is invariant under the Möbius action.
The ordinate invariant is fixed by the chosen order-three lift.
On the sextic, the two invariant functions lie on a rational conic. This is only a function-field identity, not a theorem about the Jacobian.
