The pullback of a point along [n] #
Let W be an elliptic curve over a field F and n an integer invertible in F. The
coefficient of [n]^* D at the place of a point R is the coefficient of D at the place of
n • R. Over a separably closed field, pulling the divisor (T) of a point back along
multiplication by n gives the points R with n • R = T, each with multiplicity one.
At an n-torsion point T, the divisor [n]^* (T) - [n]^* (O) is principal. This is the second
input to the divisor construction of the Weil pairing (Silverman III.8.1), after
WeierstrassCurve.Affine.exists_principal_eq_zsmul_ofPoint_sub_infinity: the pairing is built
from a function with this divisor.

The coordinate ring of an elliptic curve is a Dedekind domain.
The coefficient of [n]^* D at the place of R is the coefficient of D at the place of
n • R, for n invertible in F: the place of R lies over that of n • R, and [n] is
unramified, being separable.
The divisor [n]^* (T) - [n]^* (O), the pullback along [n] of (T) - (O). The Weil
pairing is built from a function with this divisor (Silverman III.8.1).

Instances For
The defining equation of weilPairingDivisor.
The pullback of a point along [n] is its fibre: over a separably closed field in which
n is invertible, [n]^* (T) = ∑_{n • R = T} (R).
The divisor [n]^* (T) - [n]^* (O) #
[n]^* (T) - [n]^* (O) is the translate of the fibre over O minus that fibre: for any
R₀ with n • R₀ = T, it is ∑_{n • S = O} ((R₀ + S) - (S)), over a separably closed field in
which n is invertible.
[n]^* (T) - [n]^* (O) is principal at an n-torsion point T, over a separably closed
field in which n is invertible (Silverman III.8.1). A function with this divisor is the
function g_T from which the Weil pairing is built.
