Rosatti's Theorem

There is a one-to-one correspondence between the sets of equivalent correspondences (not of value 0) on an irreducible curve of Genus (Curve) $p$, and the rational Collineations of a projective space of $2p-1$ dimensions which leave invariant a space of $p-1$ dimensions. The number of linearly independent correspondences will be that of linearly independent Collineations.
