Linear automorphisms of smooth hypersurfaces giving Galois points
Taro Hayashi
Abstract:Let X be a smooth hypersurface X of degree d ≥ 4 in a projective space P n+1 . We consider a projection of X from p ∈ P n+1 to a plane H ∼ = P n . This projection induces an extension of function fields C(X)/C(P n ). The point p is called a Galois point if the extension is Galois. In this paper, we will give a necessary and sufficient conditions for X to have Galois points by using linear automorphisms.
