Descendants of algebraic curves admitting two Galois points

Abstract

A connection between Galois points of an algebraic curve and those of a quotient curve is presented; in particular, the notion of a descendant of algebraic curves admitting two Galois points is introduced. It is shown that all descendants of a Fermat curve are Fermat curves; in particular, a Fermat curve does not have a descendant if and only if the degree is a prime.
