👉 In the context of the mathematical field of algebraic geometry, a "caprification" is a method used to construct birational maps between curves. It is named after the Italian mathematician Cesare Armand Capelli, who introduced this concept in 1956. The key idea behind caprification is that it allows us to construct more general and complex algebraic varieties by using only simple closed curves (i.e., curves that are not singularities of the underlying algebraic variety
