Chow Coordinates
A generalization of Grassmann Coordinates to 
-D varieties of degree 
in 
, where is an 
-Dprojective space. To define the Chow coordinates, take the intersection of a -D Variety
of degree by an 
-D Subspace 
of . Then the coordinates of the points of intersectionare algebraic functions of the Grassmann Coordinates of , and by taking a symmetric function of the algebraicfunctions, a hHomogeneous Polynomial known as the Chow form of is obtained. The Chow coordinates are then theCoefficients of the Chow form. Chow coordinates can generate the smallest field of definition of a divisor.
