Extract

Little is known of the details of systems of concomitants belonging to double binary forms. The cases of the single ground form of orders (1, 1), (2, 1), (2, 2) respectively, together with the simultaneous system of any number of (1, 1) forms, are the only four cases, which have been published. The following pages establish the simultaneous system of two (2, 1) forms.

This system is fundamental for the geometrical treatment of two twisted cubics lying upon a quadric surface and having four common points.
