projective closure of smooth affine curve defined by Weierstrass equation is still smooth?

48 Views Asked by At

In general, projective closure of smooth affine curve is not always smooth projective curve.

But, what about projective closure of smooth affine curve defined by Weierstrass equation?

Let $E$ be a smooth affine curve (over field $K$) defined by $y^2 +a_1 xy+ a_3y =x^3 + a_2x^2 + a_4x + a_6$(all coefficients are in $K$), then is the projective closure of $E$ is always smooth projective curve?

Thank you in advance.
