Higher Singularities and the Twistor Fibration π: CP3 → S4

Bolton, J.; Woodward, L.M.

Abstract

We use the Klein correspondences to write down an explicit relationship between two holomorphic curves, namely the directrix curve and the twistor lift, associated to a superminimal map from a Riemann surface to the 4-sphere. We also explain how the singularities of the corresponding osculating curves are related and show that they occur at the branch points or the umbilics of the corresponding superminimal map.
