Abstract

Haile, Han and Kuo have studied certain non-commutative algebras associated to a binary quartic or ternary cubic form. We extend their construction to pairs of quadratic forms in four variables, and conjecture a further generalisation to genus one curves of arbitrary degree. These constructions give an explicit realisation of an isomorphism relating the Weil-Châtelet and Brauer groups of an elliptic curve.
