Reversion Porisms in Conics

We give a projective proof of the butterfly porism for cyclic quadrilaterals and present a general reversion porism for polygons with an arbitrary number of vertices on a conic. We also investigate projective properties of the porisms.

Keywords:

Porisms, butterfly theorems, reversion map,
