Title: Cayley-Bacharach theorems
Abstract: Whereas there are well-defined methods to establish the existence and number of
solutions of over-determined linear equations, few results are known about overdetermined
polynomial equations. These results are known under the name of Cayley-Bacharach theorems.
I will trace back the historical evolution of these theorems from an early ancient result
by Pappus to the present state of the art.
