Apr 10, 2019 at 0:37 comment added Peter McNamara It's not compact. I think it's the simplest geometric example.
Apr 9, 2019 at 14:26 comment added user137767 @GregMuller is this example compact? Does not he remove the origin from the elliptic curve (making it non-compact, presumably)?
Nov 30, 2009 at 1:00 comment added Greg Muller Its the simplest compact example, because the curve of genus 0 has no open affine subschemes which aren't principal.
