Abstract

For a plane curve C, we call a point P∈P2 a Galois point with respect to C if the point projection from P induces a Galois extension of function fields. We give an example of a singular plane curve having infinitely many inner and outer Galois points. We also classify plane curves whose general points are inner Galois points. Before our results, known examples in the theory of Galois points have only finitely many Galois points, except trivial cases.
