Standard monomials of the twisted cubic
ID: standard-monomials-of-the-twisted-cubic
Modulo the three quadric relations of the twisted cubic, replace by , by , and by . Each replacement reduces the total exponent of . The resulting monomials are , , and . In degree their images under are all distinct monomials of degree . They are linearly independent, so the three quadrics generate the full homogeneous ideal, not merely its radical. The quotient is the third Veronese subring of .
