A¹ Homotopy Theory
In algebraic geometry and algebraic topology, branches of mathematics, homotopy theory or motivic homotopy theory is a way to apply the techniques of algebraic topology, specifically homotopy, to algebraic varieties and, more generally, to scheme (mathematics), schemes. The theory is due to Fabien Morel and Vladimir Voevodsky. The underlying idea is that it should be possible to develop a purely algebraic approach to homotopy theory by replacing the unit interval , which is not an algebraic variety, with the affine line , which is. The theory has seen spectacular applications such as Voevodsky's construction of the derived category of mixed motive (math), mixed motives and the proof of the Milnor conjecture, Milnor and Norm residue isomorphism theorem, Bloch-Kato conjectures. Construction homotopy theory is founded on a category called the homotopy category \mathcal(S). Simply put, the homotopy category, or rather the canonical functor Sm_S \to \mathcal(S), is the Initial an ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Algebraic Geometry
Algebraic geometry is a branch of mathematics, classically studying zeros of multivariate polynomials. Modern algebraic geometry is based on the use of abstract algebraic techniques, mainly from commutative algebra, for solving geometrical problems about these sets of zeros. The fundamental objects of study in algebraic geometry are algebraic varieties, which are geometric manifestations of solutions of systems of polynomial equations. Examples of the most studied classes of algebraic varieties are: plane algebraic curves, which include lines, circles, parabolas, ellipses, hyperbolas, cubic curves like elliptic curves, and quartic curves like lemniscates and Cassini ovals. A point of the plane belongs to an algebraic curve if its coordinates satisfy a given polynomial equation. Basic questions involve the study of the points of special interest like the singular points, the inflection points and the points at infinity. More advanced questions involve the topology of the ...

Model Category
In mathematics, particularly in homotopy theory, a model category is a category with distinguished classes of morphisms ('arrows') called ' weak equivalences', ' fibrations' and 'cofibrations' satisfying certain axioms relating them. These abstract from the category of topological spaces or of chain complexes (derived category theory). The concept was introduced by . In recent decades, the language of model categories has been used in some parts of algebraic ''K''-theory and algebraic geometry, where homotopy-theoretic approaches led to deep results. Motivation Model categories can provide a natural setting for homotopy theory: the category of topological spaces is a model category, with the homotopy corresponding to the usual theory. Similarly, objects that are thought of as spaces often admit a model category structure, such as the category of simplicial sets. Another model category is the category of chain complexes of ''R''-modules for a commutative ring ''R''. Homotopy th ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
0805
Surface-mount technology (SMT), originally called planar mounting, is a method in which the electrical components are mounted directly onto the surface of a printed circuit board (PCB). An electrical component mounted in this manner is referred to as a surface-mount device (SMD). In industry, this approach has largely replaced the through-hole technology construction method of fitting components, in large part because SMT allows for increased manufacturing automation which reduces cost and improves quality. It also allows for more components to fit on a given area of substrate. Both technologies can be used on the same board, with the through-hole technology often used for components not suitable for surface mounting such as large transformers and heat-sinked power semiconductors. An SMT component is usually smaller than its through-hole counterpart because it has either smaller leads or no leads at all. It may have short pins or leads of various styles, flat contacts, a matrix ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Stable Homotopy Category
A stable is a building in which livestock, especially horses, are kept. It most commonly means a building that is divided into separate stalls for individual animals and livestock. There are many different types of stables in use today; the American-style barn, for instance, is a large barn with a door at each end and individual stalls inside or free-standing stables with top and bottom-opening doors. The term "stable" is also used to describe a group of animals kept by one owner, regardless of housing or location. The exterior design of a stable can vary widely, based on climate, building materials, historical period and cultural styles of architecture. A wide range of building materials can be used, including masonry (bricks or stone), wood and steel. Stables also range widely in size, from a small building housing one or two animals to facilities at agricultural shows or race tracks that can house hundreds of animals. History The stable is typically historically the se ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Algebraic K-theory
Algebraic ''K''-theory is a subject area in mathematics with connections to geometry, topology, ring theory, and number theory. Geometric, algebraic, and arithmetic objects are assigned objects called ''K''-groups. These are groups in the sense of abstract algebra. They contain detailed information about the original object but are notoriously difficult to compute; for example, an important outstanding problem is to compute the ''K''-groups of the integers. ''K''-theory was discovered in the late 1950s by Alexander Grothendieck in his study of intersection theory on algebraic varieties. In the modern language, Grothendieck defined only ''K''0, the zeroth ''K''-group, but even this single group has plenty of applications, such as the Grothendieck–Riemann–Roch theorem. Intersection theory is still a motivating force in the development of (higher) algebraic ''K''-theory through its links with motivic cohomology and specifically Chow groups. The subject also includes classical ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Homotopy Category
In mathematics, the homotopy category is a category built from the category of topological spaces which in a sense identifies two spaces that have the same shape. The phrase is in fact used for two different (but related) categories, as discussed below. More generally, instead of starting with the category of topological spaces, one may start with any model category and define its associated homotopy category, with a construction introduced by Quillen in 1967. In this way, homotopy theory can be applied to many other categories in geometry and algebra. The naive homotopy category The category of topological spaces Top has objects the topological spaces and morphisms the continuous maps between them. The older definition of the homotopy category hTop, called the naive homotopy category for clarity in this article, has the same objects, and a morphism is a homotopy class of continuous maps. That is, two continuous maps ''f'': ''X'' → ''Y'' are considered the same in the naive hom ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Smooth Morphism
In algebraic geometry, a morphism f:X \to S between schemes is said to be smooth if *(i) it is locally of finite presentation *(ii) it is flat, and *(iii) for every geometric point \overline \to S the fiber X_ = X \times_S is regular. (iii) means that each geometric fiber of ''f'' is a nonsingular variety (if it is separated). Thus, intuitively speaking, a smooth morphism gives a flat family of nonsingular varieties. If ''S'' is the spectrum of an algebraically closed field and ''f'' is of finite type, then one recovers the definition of a nonsingular variety. Equivalent definitions There are many equivalent definitions of a smooth morphism. Let f: X \to S be locally of finite presentation. Then the following are equivalent. # ''f'' is smooth. # ''f'' is formally smooth (see below). # ''f'' is flat and the sheaf of relative differentials \Omega_ is locally free of rank equal to the relative dimension of X/S. # For any x \in X, there exists a neighborhood \operatornameB of x and a ...

Noetherian Scheme
In algebraic geometry, a noetherian scheme is a scheme that admits a finite covering by open affine subsets \operatorname A_i, A_i noetherian rings. More generally, a scheme is locally noetherian if it is covered by spectra of noetherian rings. Thus, a scheme is noetherian if and only if it is locally noetherian and quasi-compact. As with noetherian rings, the concept is named after Emmy Noether. It can be shown that, in a locally noetherian scheme, if \operatorname A is an open affine subset, then ''A'' is a noetherian ring. In particular, \operatorname A is a noetherian scheme if and only if ''A'' is a noetherian ring. Let ''X'' be a locally noetherian scheme. Then the local rings \mathcal_ are noetherian rings. A noetherian scheme is a noetherian topological space. But the converse is false in general; consider, for example, the spectrum of a non-noetherian valuation ring. The definitions extend to formal schemes. Properties and Noetherian hypotheses Having a (locally ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Yoneda Lemma
In mathematics, the Yoneda lemma is arguably the most important result in category theory. It is an abstract result on functors of the type ''morphisms into a fixed object''. It is a vast generalisation of Cayley's theorem from group theory (viewing a group as a miniature category with just one object and only isomorphisms). It allows the embedding of any locally small category into a category of functors (contravariant set-valued functors) defined on that category. It also clarifies how the embedded category, of representable functors and their natural transformations, relates to the other objects in the larger functor category. It is an important tool that underlies several modern developments in algebraic geometry and representation theory. It is named after Nobuo Yoneda. Generalities The Yoneda lemma suggests that instead of studying the locally small category \mathcal , one should study the category of all functors of \mathcal into \mathbf (the category of sets with ...
