Exact heights of powered plane-curve coordinates #

The two rational-function-field models of a plane curve identify the base variable RatFunc.X with the corresponding coordinate function. Combining those models with the polynomial-height formula computes the positive degree of the principal divisor of x ^ m - 1 and y ^ n - 1 exactly.

In the first-coordinate RatFunc K model, the positive principal-divisor degree of x ^ m - 1 is m times the degree of the curve equation in the second coordinate.

In the second-coordinate RatFunc K model, the positive principal-divisor degree of y ^ n - 1 is n times the degree of the curve equation in the first coordinate.
