The projective line and its generic points #

This file realizes the projective line over a field K as the projective spectrum of the standard grading on K[X₀, X₁]. A field extension map K → F and an element g : F determine the F-valued point [g : 1].

For an integral curve with function field F, this is the generic-point morphism attached to a rational function. It is the first geometric input to the product formula in TauCetiRoadmap/JacobianChallenge/README.md, Layer A, "Divisors on a curve".

    The standard graded-algebra structure on the homogeneous coordinate ring of the projective line. Mathlib intentionally does not install this instance globally because multivariate polynomials admit other weighted gradings.

            The F-valued point [g : 1] of the projective line associated to a field map K → F and an element g : F.

            For a curve function field, this is the generic-point morphism defined by the corresponding rational function. The explicit field map makes the base-field structure part of the data and avoids choosing a global Algebra K F instance.

                The point [1 : g] lies in the affine chart D₊(X₀) containing infinity.

                The point [g : 1] lies in the standard affine chart where the second homogeneous coordinate is nonzero.

                If g is nonzero, the point [g : 1] also lies in the affine chart D₊(X₀) containing infinity.

                Pulling the standard affine coordinate X₀ / X₁ back along [g : 1] gives g.

                This is the computational interface needed to distinguish the rational-function morphism of a non-global function from a constant morphism.

                Before identifying the degree-zero homogeneous coordinate ring with K, the point [g : 1] lies over the field map from that degree-zero ring to F.
