Consider a curve of genus one over a field K in one of three explicit forms: a double cover of P 1 , a plane cubic, or a space quartic. For each form, a certain syzygy from classical invariant theory gives the curve's jacobian in Weierstrass form and the covering map to its jacobian induced by the K

β¦ Synopsis
Let X be a nonsingular projective curve of genus one defined over an algebraically closed field of characteristic 0. Let D be a divisor of X of degree n > 1 and let O be a (closed) point of X. As is well known, there exists a unique morphism
Our main result is a simple explicit description of the map D,O in terms of Wronskians and certain Wronskian-like determinants lacunary in the sense that derivatives of some orders are skipped. Further, for n = 2, 3 we interpret our main result as a syzygy from classical invariant theory, thus reconciling our work with a circle of ideas treated in two papers by Weil and a recent paper by An, Kim, Marshall, Marshall, McCallum and Perlis.

Tate proved a theorem on rational points of torsors ("Torsors" means "Homogeneous spaces," in sequel we use "torsors" in this meaning) of \(T / K\), where \(K\) is a local field, \(T\) is a Tate curve. In this paper we extend the above theorem to the case where \(T\) is a twist of a Tate curve, and
We describe the span of Hecke eigenforms of weight four with nonzero central value of L-function in terms of Wronskians of certain weight one Eisenstein series.
