Exact source-height factorization through the powered image #
These identities are the degree bookkeeping used in the two orientations of Corvaja--Zannier Proposition 2. The first factor is the relevant degree of the powered-image relation and the second is the common source-to-image index.

In the orientation (u,v)=(x^m,y^n), the degree of the image relation in
u times the common source-to-image index is the source height n d₀.
