Abstract in another language
This is the second in a series of papers in which we study the n-Selmer group of an elliptic curve. In this paper, we show how to realize elements of the n-Selmer group explicitly as curves of degree n embedded in P^(n-1). The main tool we use is a comparison between an easily obtained embedding into P^(n^2-1) and another map into P^(n^2-1) that
factors through the Segre embedding P^(n-1) x P^(n-1) -> P^(n^2 - 1). The comparison relies on an explicit version of the local-to-global principle for the n-torsion of the Brauer group of the base field.
