The addition-and-subtraction map on x-coordinates #
We set up the endomorphism of ℙ² that on affine points with affine sum is equal to
(x(P) * x(Q) : x(P) + x(Q) : 1) ↦ (x(P+Q) * x(P-Q) : x(P+Q) + x(P-Q) : 1);
see WeierstrassCurve.addSubMap (this is on coordinate vectors).
TODO: Show that the map really does what it is claimed to do.
This will be used to eventually show the approximate parallelogram law for K-points
on an elliptic curve E:
∃ C, ∀ P Q : E(K), |h(P+Q) + h(P-Q) - 2*h(P) - 2*h(Q)| ≤ C,
where K is a field with a height and h denotes the (logarithmic) naïve height on E(K).
The addition-and-subtraction map on x-coordinates #
The polynomial map on coordinate vectors giving
(x(P) * x(Q) : x(P) + x(Q) : 1) ↦ (x(P+Q) * x(P-Q) : x(P+Q) + x(P-Q) : 1)
for points P, Q on the Weierstrass curve W.
