On quadrics poristically related to a rational norm curve

Published online by Cambridge University Press:  24 October 2008

Extract

The main object of this paper is to study the quadrics which have simultaneously certain poristic relations with a rational norm curve. We shall begin with a résumé of the work done in this direction in the ordinary space [3].

Though it is not defined as an envelope, the degenerate remarkable quadric locus shares with the inpolar quadric the property of having ∞1 inscribed simplexes of R n, self-polar with respect to it, since the correspondence determined by it is also closed. In this case, however, the simplexes have as a common element a [nr], where r is the rank of the quadric locus.

* A [r − 1] is said to be chordal to a given curve when it cuts the curve in r points, and is said to be axial to the curve when it lies in nr + 1 osculating primes of the curve.
