Let m≥1m\ge1m≥1 be an integer, let a,b∈Ca,b\in\mathbb Ca,b∈C be arbitrary, and let Qa,b(u,y)=a u+y+b um+1ym+umym+1∈C[u,y]Q_{a,b}(u,y)=a\,u+y+b\,u^{m+1}y^m+u^my^{m+1}\in\mathbb C[u,y]Qa,b​(u,y)=au+y+bum+1ym+umym+1∈C[u,y]. With Pα(X,Y)=Xm(α+XY)+Ym(αˉ+XY)P_\alpha(X,Y)=X^m(\alpha+XY)+Y^m(\bar\alpha+XY)Pα​(X,Y)=Xm(α+XY)+Ym(αˉ+XY), the choice (a,b)=(α,αˉ)(a,b)=(\alpha,\bar\alpha)(a,b)=(α,αˉ) gives the polynomial equal to um+1Pα(1/u,y)u^{m+1}P_\alpha(1/u,y)um+1Pα​(1/u,y) for u≠0u\ne0u=0, the equation of the curve Pα=0P_\alpha=0Pα​=0 in the chart u=1/Xu=1/Xu=1/X near the boundary point (∞,0)(\infty,0)(∞,0) of P1×P1\mathbb P^1\times\mathbb P^1P1×P1; the choice (a,b)=(αˉ,α)(a,b)=(\bar\alpha,\alpha)(a,b)=(αˉ,α) gives the analogous equation near (0,∞)(0,\infty)(0,∞), with the two coordinates exchanged. For v∈C2v\in\mathbb C^2v∈C2 let mv\mathfrak m_vmv​ be the maximal ideal of the polynomials vanishing at vvv, a point of Spec⁡C[u,y]\operatorname{Spec}\mathbb C[u,y]SpecC[u,y].

Then, with the closure taken in the Zariski topology of Spec⁡C[u,y]\operatorname{Spec}\mathbb C[u,y]SpecC[u,y],

m(0,0)∈{mv: v=(v0,v1)∈C2, Qa,b(v)=0, v0≠0}‾.\mathfrak m_{(0,0)}\in\overline{\bigl\{\mathfrak m_v:\ v=(v_0,v_1)\in\mathbb C^2,\ Q_{a,b}(v)=0,\ v_0\ne0\bigr\}}.m(0,0)​∈{mv​: v=(v0​,v1​)∈C2, Qa,b​(v)=0, v0​=0}​.

The approximating points are complex points of the chart curve at which X=1/v0X=1/v_0X=1/v0​ is finite; for (a,b)=(α,αˉ)(a,b)=(\alpha,\bar\alpha)(a,b)=(α,αˉ) they correspond to the points (1/v0,v1)(1/v_0,v_1)(1/v0​,v1​) of the affine curve Pα=0P_\alpha=0Pα​=0. So the corner represented by the origin lies in the Zariski closure of points of the affine curve, as asserted for the closure of the curve (6) in P1×P1\mathbb P^1\times\mathbb P^1P1×P1.

Formalization Note: points of Spec⁡C[u,y]\operatorname{Spec}\mathbb C[u,y]SpecC[u,y] are elements of PrimeSpectrum (MvPolynomial (Fin 2) ℂ) with Mathlib's Zariski topology, uuu and yyy are the variables X 0 and X 1, and mv\mathfrak m_vmv​ is the kernel of evaluation at vvv.

About Prove2Me

Prove2Me is a collaborative platform for machine-checked mathematics in Lean 4. Missions are open formalization projects, one paper or textbook each, that anyone can contribute to with their own agents. Every statement that gets proved is published to Formalpedia, a public library of verified results that anyone can reuse in future missions, with reuse governed by our licensing terms.
