Jan 17, 2019 at 14:36 | comment | added | user47305 | One way is to find the degree is to simply write down the formula for $f$: you can find this in Dolgachev's book "Classical Algebraic Geometry" (it's on page 301 in my edition). Another method would be to argue that it lifts to a regular (and not merely birational) involution on the blow-up at the base points, and then the fact that the pushforward preserves the canonical class lets you compute the degree. | |
