Graph of even points on an arithmetic curve

Abstract

We show that the points of a global function field, whose classes are 2-divisible in the Picard group, form a connected graph, with the incidence relation generalizing the well known quadratic reciprocity law. We prove that for every global function field the dimension of this graph is precisely 2. In addition we develop an analog of global square theorem that concerns points 2-divisible in the Picard group.
