Abstract

The main object of this paper is to relate a certain type of graded algebra, namely the regular algebras of dimension 3, to automorphisms of elliptic curves. Some of the results were announced in [V]. A graded algebra A is called regular if it has finite global dimension, polynomial growth, and is Gorenstein. The precise definitions are reviewed in Section 2. As was shown in [A-S], there are two basic possibilities for a regular algebra A of (global) dimension 3 which is generated in degree 1. Either A can be presented by 3 generators and 3 quadratic relations, or else by 2 generators and 2 cubic relations. Throughout this paper, A will denote an algebra so presented, over a ground field k.
