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 grading of the homogeneous coordinate ring K[X₀, X₁].

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.

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

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