Cubic surfaces with a Galois invariant pair of Steiner trihedra

Abstract

We present a method to construct non-singular cubic surfaces over with a Galois invariant pair of Steiner trihedra. We start with cubic surfaces in a form generalizing that of A. Cayley and G. Salmon. For these, we develop an explicit version of Galois descent.
