ELLIPTIC CUBIC


Cartesian equation:  with  .
Cartesian parametrization:   where  is the associated Weierstrass function (cf [Eymard Lafond] p. 220).

An elliptic cubic is a cubic without singularities.
Any elliptic cubic is projectively equivalent to a divergent parabola, whose equation is given above, or to a Chasles cubic, or a cubic hyperbola.

Examples: the non-rational circular cubics, the Lamé cubic, the Humbert cubic.
