Sep 26, 2011 at 13:35 comment added quim The point is that you know $H|_B=3P$, and then the isomorphism tells you that $3P\in |3P|$, being a single divisor, has a single divisor in the preimage. In other words, the isomorphism in $H^0$ induces an isomorphism in the projectivizations $|H|={\mathbb P}(H^0({\mathcal O}_{X}(d)))\cong {\mathbb P}(H^0({\mathcal O}_{B}(3P)))=|3P|$.
Sep 26, 2011 at 12:04 comment added Srks thank you quim for your answer. For my problem I can assume $P$ to be a point of order $3d$ for all $d$ so I have no problems about flexes. Anyway I can see the existence form the isomorphism of $H^0$ but how can you show that is unique?
Sep 26, 2011 at 10:55 comment added naf One can find such conics passing through any point of order $6$ on $B$ (where we choose a flex as the zero for the group law).
Sep 26, 2011 at 9:42 comment added quim BTW: I don't know offhand if there exist other points P (not flexes) where there is an irreducible conic Q with Q.B=6P. My guess is yes.
