The Poncelet grid
Given a convex polygon P in the projective plane we can form a finite “grid” of points by taking the pairwise intersections of the lines extending the edges of P. When P is a Poncelet polygon we show that this grid is contained in a finite union of ellipses and hyperbolas and derive other related geometric information about the grid.
