β¦ Synopsis
The basic idea is a mapping from d-dimensional subspaces of a 2d-dimensional vector space onto points in a projective space of dimension (2d)-1. We develop conditions under which a point in the larger projective space is an image point under this mapping. We also develop conditions corresponding to cases where the d-dimensional vector spaces do or do not intersect.

The ideas of this paper were suggested by the formal likeness between Mumford's toric description of degenerating families of elliptic curves (in [A]) and parabolic Inoue surfaces (first constructed in [In]). The likeness is not readily apparent from [In] but is pointed out in [MO], where a toric co
