Nisnevich Topology
In algebraic geometry, the Nisnevich topology, sometimes called the completely decomposed topology, is a Grothendieck topology on the category of schemes which has been used in algebraic K-theory, A¹ homotopy theory, and the theory of motives. It was originally introduced by Yevsey Nisnevich, who was motivated by the theory of adeles. Definition A morphism of schemes f:Y \to X is called a Nisnevich morphism if it is an étale morphism such that for every (possibly non-closed) point ''x'' ∈ ''X'', there exists a point ''y'' ∈ ''Y'' in the fiber such that the induced map of residue fields ''k''(''x'') → ''k''(''y'') is an isomorphism. Equivalently, ''f'' must be flat, unramified, locally of finite presentation, and for every point ''x'' ∈ ''X'', there must exist a point ''y'' in the fiber such that ''k''(''x'') → ''k''(''y'') is an isomorphism. A family of morphisms is a Nisnevich cover if each morphism in the family is étale and for every (possibly non-clo ...

Algebraic Geometry
Algebraic geometry is a branch of mathematics which uses abstract algebraic techniques, mainly from commutative algebra, to solve geometry, geometrical problems. Classically, it studies zero of a function, zeros of multivariate polynomials; the modern approach generalizes this in a few different aspects. The fundamental objects of study in algebraic geometry are algebraic variety, algebraic varieties, which are geometric manifestations of solution set, solutions of systems of polynomial equations. Examples of the most studied classes of algebraic varieties are line (geometry), lines, circles, parabolas, ellipses, hyperbolas, cubic curves like elliptic curves, and quartic curves like lemniscate of Bernoulli, lemniscates and Cassini ovals. These are plane algebraic curves. A point of the plane lies on an algebraic curve if its coordinates satisfy a given polynomial equation. Basic questions involve the study of points of special interest like singular point of a curve, singular p ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] [Amazon] |
Cdh Topology
In algebraic geometry, the ''h'' topology is a Grothendieck topology introduced by Vladimir Voevodsky to study the homology of schemes. It combines several good properties possessed by its related "sub"topologies, such as the ''qfh'' and ''cdh'' topologies. It has subsequently been used by Beilinson to study p-adic Hodge theory, in Bhatt and Scholze's work on projectivity of the affine Grassmanian, Huber and Jörder's study of differential forms, etc. Definition Voevodsky defined the ''h'' topology to be the topology associated to finite families \ of morphisms of finite type such that \amalg U_i \to X is a universal topological epimorphism (i.e., a set of points in the target is an open subset if and only if its preimage is open, and any base change also has this property). Voevodsky worked with this topology exclusively on categories Sch^_ of schemes of finite type over a ''Noetherian'' base scheme S. Bhatt-Scholze define the ''h'' topology on the category Sch^_ of schemes ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] [Amazon] |
Henselian Ring
In mathematics, a Henselian ring (or Hensel ring) is a local ring in which Hensel's lemma holds. They were introduced by , who named them after Kurt Hensel. Azumaya originally allowed Henselian rings to be non-commutative, but most authors now restrict them to be commutative. Some standard references for Hensel rings are , , and . Definitions In this article rings will be assumed to be commutative, though there is also a theory of non-commutative Henselian rings. * A local ring ''R'' with maximal ideal ''m'' is called Henselian if Hensel's lemma holds. This means that if ''P'' is a monic polynomial in ''R'' 'x'' then any factorization of its image ''P'' in (''R''/''m'') 'x''into a product of coprime monic polynomials can be lifted to a factorization in ''R'' 'x'' * A local ring is Henselian if and only if every finite ring extension is a product of local rings. * A Henselian local ring is called strictly Henselian if its residue field is separably closed. * By abuse of term ...

Presheaf With Transfers
In algebraic geometry, a presheaf with transfers is, roughly, a presheaf that, like cohomology theory, comes with pushforwards, “transfer” maps. Precisely, it is, by definition, a contravariant additive functor from the category of finite correspondences (defined below) to the category of abelian groups (in category theory, “presheaf” is another term for a contravariant functor). When a presheaf ''F'' with transfers is restricted to the subcategory of smooth separated schemes, it can be viewed as a presheaf on the category with ''extra'' maps F(Y) \to F(X), not coming from morphisms of schemes but also from finite correspondences from ''X'' to ''Y'' A presheaf ''F'' with transfers is said to be \mathbb^1-homotopy invariant if F(X) \simeq F(X \times \mathbb^1) for every ''X''. For example, Chow groups as well as motivic cohomology groups form presheaves with transfers. Finite correspondence Let X, Y be algebraic schemes (i.e., separated and of finite type over a fiel ...

Spectral Sequence
In homological algebra and algebraic topology, a spectral sequence is a means of computing homology groups by taking successive approximations. Spectral sequences are a generalization of exact sequences, and since their introduction by , they have become important computational tools, particularly in algebraic topology, algebraic geometry and homological algebra. Discovery and motivation Motivated by problems in algebraic topology, Jean Leray introduced the notion of a sheaf and found himself faced with the problem of computing sheaf cohomology. To compute sheaf cohomology, Leray introduced a computational technique now known as the Leray spectral sequence. This gave a relation between cohomology groups of a sheaf and cohomology groups of the pushforward of the sheaf. The relation involved an infinite process. Leray found that the cohomology groups of the pushforward formed a natural chain complex, so that he could take the cohomology of the cohomology. This was still not ...

Zariski Topology
In algebraic geometry and commutative algebra, the Zariski topology is a topology defined on geometric objects called varieties. It is very different from topologies that are commonly used in real or complex analysis; in particular, it is not Hausdorff. This topology was introduced primarily by Oscar Zariski and later generalized for making the set of prime ideals of a commutative ring (called the spectrum of the ring) a topological space. The Zariski topology allows tools from topology to be used to study algebraic varieties, even when the underlying field is not a topological field. This is one of the basic ideas of scheme theory, which allows one to build general algebraic varieties by gluing together affine varieties in a way similar to that in manifold theory, where manifolds are built by gluing together charts, which are open subsets of real affine spaces. The Zariski topology of an algebraic variety is the topology whose closed sets are the algebraic subsets of t ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] [Amazon] |
Torsor
In mathematics, a principal homogeneous space, or torsor, for a group ''G'' is a homogeneous space ''X'' for ''G'' in which the stabilizer subgroup of every point is trivial. Equivalently, a principal homogeneous space for a group ''G'' is a non-empty set ''X'' on which ''G'' acts freely and transitively (meaning that, for any ''x'', ''y'' in ''X'', there exists a unique ''g'' in ''G'' such that , where · denotes the (right) action of ''G'' on ''X''). An analogous definition holds in other categories, where, for example, *''G'' is a topological group, ''X'' is a topological space and the action is continuous, *''G'' is a Lie group, ''X'' is a smooth manifold and the action is smooth, *''G'' is an algebraic group, ''X'' is an algebraic variety and the action is regular. Definition If ''G'' is nonabelian then one must distinguish between left and right torsors according to whether the action is on the left or right. In this article, we will use right actions.

Alexander Grothendieck
Alexander Grothendieck, later Alexandre Grothendieck in French (; ; ; 28 March 1928 – 13 November 2014), was a German-born French mathematician who became the leading figure in the creation of modern algebraic geometry. His research extended the scope of the field and added elements of commutative algebra, homological algebra, sheaf theory, and category theory to its foundations, while his so-called Grothendieck's relative point of view, "relative" perspective led to revolutionary advances in many areas of pure mathematics. He is considered by many to be the greatest mathematician of the twentieth century. Grothendieck began his productive and public career as a mathematician in 1949. In 1958, he was appointed a research professor at the Institut des Hautes Études Scientifiques, Institut des hautes études scientifiques (IHÉS) and remained there until 1970, when, driven by personal and political convictions, he left following a dispute over military funding.
