Galois points for a plane curve and its dual curve, II (1503.00935v1)

Published 3 Mar 2015 in math.AG

Abstract: Let $C \subset \mathbb{P}2$ be a plane curve of degree at least three. A point $P$ in projective plane is said to be Galois if the function field extension induced by the projection $\pi_P: C \dashrightarrow \mathbb P1$ from $P$ is Galois. Further we say that a Galois point is extendable if any birational transformation induced by the Galois group can be extended to a linear transformation of the projective plane. This article is the second part of [2], where we showed that the Galois group at an extendable Galois point $P$ has a natural action on the dual curve $C* \subset \mathbb{P}{2*}$ which preserves the fibers of the projection $\pi_{\overline{P}}$ from a certain point $\overline{P} \in \mathbb{P}{2*}$. In this article we improve such a result, and we investigate the Galois group of $\pi_{\overline{P}}$. In particular, we study both when $\overline{P}$ is a Galois point, and when ${\rm deg} \ (\pi_P)$ is prime and ${\rm deg} \ (\pi_{\overline{P}}) = 2{\rm deg} \ (\pi_P)$. As an application, we determine the number of points at which the Galois groups are certain fixed groups for the dual curve of a cubic curve.
