Separated Morphism
In algebraic geometry, given a morphism of schemes p: X \to S, the diagonal morphism :\delta: X \to X \times_S X is a morphism determined by the universal property of the fiber product X \times_S X of ''p'' and ''p'' applied to the identity 1_X : X \to X and the identity 1_X. It is a special case of a graph morphism: given a morphism f: X \to Y over ''S'', the graph morphism of it is X \to X \times_S Y induced by f and the identity 1_X. The diagonal embedding is the graph morphism of 1_X. By definition, ''X'' is a separated scheme over ''S'' (p: X \to S is a separated morphism) if the diagonal morphism is a closed immersion. Also, a morphism p: X \to S locally of finite presentation is an unramified morphism if and only if the diagonal embedding is an open immersion. Explanation As an example, consider an algebraic variety over an algebraically closed field ''k'' and p: X \to \operatorname(k) the structure map. Then, identifying ''X'' with the set of its ''k''-rational points, X ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Morphism Of Schemes
In algebraic geometry, a morphism of schemes generalizes a morphism of algebraic varieties just as a scheme generalizes an algebraic variety. It is, by definition, a morphism in the category of schemes. A morphism of algebraic stacks generalizes a morphism of schemes. Definition By definition, a morphism of schemes is just a morphism of locally ringed spaces. Isomorphisms are defined accordingly. A scheme, by definition, has open affine charts and thus a morphism of schemes can also be described in terms of such charts (compare the definition of morphism of varieties). Let ƒ:''X''→''Y'' be a morphism of schemes. If ''x'' is a point of ''X'', since ƒ is continuous, there are open affine subsets ''U'' = Spec ''A'' of ''X'' containing ''x'' and ''V'' = Spec ''B'' of ''Y'' such that ƒ(''U'') ⊆ ''V''. Then ƒ: ''U'' → ''V'' is a morphism of affine schemes and thus is induced by some ring homomorphism ''B'' → ''A'' (cf. #Affine case.) In fact, one can use this des ...

Topological Space
In mathematics, a topological space is, roughly speaking, a Geometry, geometrical space in which Closeness (mathematics), closeness is defined but cannot necessarily be measured by a numeric Distance (mathematics), distance. More specifically, a topological space is a Set (mathematics), set whose elements are called Point (geometry), points, along with an additional structure called a topology, which can be defined as a set of Neighbourhood (mathematics), neighbourhoods for each point that satisfy some Axiom#Non-logical axioms, axioms formalizing the concept of closeness. There are several equivalent definitions of a topology, the most commonly used of which is the definition through open sets, which is easier than the others to manipulate. A topological space is the most general type of a space (mathematics), mathematical space that allows for the definition of Limit (mathematics), limits, Continuous function (topology), continuity, and Connected space, connectedness.

Regular Embedding
In algebraic geometry, a closed immersion i: X \hookrightarrow Y of schemes is a regular embedding of codimension ''r'' if each point ''x'' in ''X'' has an open affine neighborhood ''U'' in ''Y'' such that the ideal of X \cap U is generated by a regular sequence of length ''r''. A regular embedding of codimension one is precisely an effective Cartier divisor. Examples and usage For example, if ''X'' and ''Y'' are smooth over a scheme ''S'' and if ''i'' is an ''S''-morphism, then ''i'' is a regular embedding. In particular, every section of a smooth morphism is a regular embedding. If \operatornameB is regularly embedded into a regular scheme, then ''B'' is a complete intersection ring. The notion is used, for instance, in an essential way in Fulton's approach to intersection theory. The important fact is that when ''i'' is a regular embedding, if ''I'' is the ideal sheaf of ''X'' in ''Y'', then the normal sheaf, the dual of I/I^2, is locally free (thus a vector bundle) and t ...

Smooth Variety
In algebraic geometry, a smooth scheme over a Field (mathematics), field is a scheme (mathematics), scheme which is well approximated by affine space near any point. Smoothness is one way of making precise the notion of a scheme with no Singular point of an algebraic variety, singular points. A special case is the notion of a smooth algebraic variety, variety over a field. Smooth schemes play the role in algebraic geometry of manifolds in topology. Definition First, let ''X'' be an affine scheme of Glossary of scheme theory#finite, finite type over a field ''k''. Equivalently, ''X'' has a closed immersion into affine space ''An'' over ''k'' for some natural number ''n''. Then ''X'' is the closed subscheme defined by some equations ''g''1 = 0, ..., ''g''''r'' = 0, where each ''gi'' is in the polynomial ring ''k''[''x''1,..., ''x''''n'']. The affine scheme ''X'' is smooth of dimension ''m'' over ''k'' if ''X'' has Dimension of an algebraic variety, dimension at least ''m'' in a neig ...

Algebraic Cycle
In mathematics, an algebraic cycle on an algebraic variety ''V'' is a formal linear combination of subvarieties of ''V''. These are the part of the algebraic topology of ''V'' that is directly accessible by algebraic methods. Understanding the algebraic cycles on a variety can give profound insights into the structure of the variety. The most trivial case is codimension zero cycles, which are linear combinations of the irreducible components of the variety. The first non-trivial case is of codimension one subvarieties, called divisors. The earliest work on algebraic cycles focused on the case of divisors, particularly divisors on algebraic curves. Divisors on algebraic curves are formal linear combinations of points on the curve. Classical work on algebraic curves related these to intrinsic data, such as the regular differentials on a compact Riemann surface, and to extrinsic properties, such as embeddings of the curve into projective space. While divisors on higher-dimension ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Intersection Product
In mathematics, the intersection of two or more objects is another object consisting of everything that is contained in all of the objects simultaneously. For example, in Euclidean geometry, when two Line (geometry), lines in a Plane (geometry), plane are not parallel, their intersection is the Point (geometry), point at which they meet. More generally, in set theory, the intersection of sets is defined to be the set of Element (mathematics), elements which belong to all of them. Unlike the Euclidean definition, this does not presume that the objects under consideration lie in a common space (mathematics), space. It simply means the overlapping area of two or more objects or geometries. Intersection is one of the basic concepts of geometry. An intersection can have various geometric shapes, but a point (geometry), point is the most common in a plane geometry. Incidence geometry defines an intersection (usually, of flat (geometry), flats) as an object of lower dimension (mathem ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Gluing Scheme
Adhesive, also known as glue, cement, mucilage, or paste, is any non-metallic substance applied to one or both surfaces of two separate items that molecular binding, binds them together and resists their separation. The use of adhesives offers certain advantages over other binding techniques such as sewing, fastener, mechanical fastenings, and welding. These include the ability to bind different materials together, the more efficient distribution of stress across a joint, the cost-effectiveness of an easily mechanized process, and greater flexibility in design. Disadvantages of adhesive use include decreased stability at high temperatures, relative weakness in bonding large objects with a small bonding surface area, and greater difficulty in separating objects during testing. Adhesives are typically organized by the method of adhesion followed by ''reactive'' or ''non-reactive'', a term which refers to whether the adhesive chemical reaction, chemically reacts in order to harden. ...

Identity Function
Graph of the identity function on the real numbers In mathematics, an identity function, also called an identity relation, identity map or identity transformation, is a function that always returns the value that was used as its argument, unchanged. That is, when is the identity function, the equality is true for all values of to which can be applied. Definition Formally, if is a set, the identity function on is defined to be a function with as its domain and codomain, satisfying In other words, the function value in the codomain is always the same as the input element in the domain . The identity function on is clearly an injective function as well as a surjective function (its codomain is also its range), so it is bijective. The identity function on is often denoted by . In set theory, where a function is defined as a particular kind of binary relation, the identity function is given by the identity relation, or ''diagonal'' of . Algebraic propert ...

Hausdorff Topological Space
In topology and related branches of mathematics, a Hausdorff space ( , ), T2 space or separated space, is a topological space where distinct points have disjoint neighbourhoods. Of the many separation axioms that can be imposed on a topological space, the "Hausdorff condition" (T2) is the most frequently used and discussed. It implies the uniqueness of limits of sequences, nets, and filters. Hausdorff spaces are named after Felix Hausdorff, one of the founders of topology. Hausdorff's original definition of a topological space (in 1914) included the Hausdorff condition as an axiom. Definitions Points x and y in a topological space X can be '' separated by neighbourhoods'' if there exists a neighbourhood U of x and a neighbourhood V of y such that U and V are disjoint (U\cap V=\varnothing). X is a Hausdorff space if any two distinct points in X are separated by neighbourhoods. This condition is the third separation axiom (after T0 and T1), which is why Hausdorff spa ...

Diagonal
In geometry, a diagonal is a line segment joining two vertices of a polygon or polyhedron, when those vertices are not on the same edge. Informally, any sloping line is called diagonal. The word ''diagonal'' derives from the ancient Greek διαγώνιος ''diagonios'', "from corner to corner" (from διά- ''dia-'', "through", "across" and γωνία ''gonia'', "corner", related to ''gony'' "knee"); it was used by both Strabo and Euclid to refer to a line connecting two vertices of a rhombus or cuboid, and later adopted into Latin as ''diagonus'' ("slanting line"). Polygons As applied to a polygon, a diagonal is a line segment joining any two non-consecutive vertices. Therefore, a quadrilateral has two diagonals, joining opposite pairs of vertices. For any convex polygon, all the diagonals are inside the polygon, but for re-entrant polygons, some diagonals are outside of the polygon. Any ''n''-sided polygon (''n'' ≥ 3), convex or concave, has \tfrac ''total'' ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Universal Property
In mathematics, more specifically in category theory, a universal property is a property that characterizes up to an isomorphism the result of some constructions. Thus, universal properties can be used for defining some objects independently from the method chosen for constructing them. For example, the definitions of the integers from the natural numbers, of the rational numbers from the integers, of the real numbers from the rational numbers, and of polynomial rings from the field (mathematics), field of their coefficients can all be done in terms of universal properties. In particular, the concept of universal property allows a simple proof that all constructions of real numbers are equivalent: it suffices to prove that they satisfy the same universal property. Technically, a universal property is defined in terms of category (mathematics), categories and functors by means of a universal morphism (see , below). Universal morphisms can also be thought more abstractly as Initia ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Fiber Product
In category theory, a branch of mathematics, a pullback (also called a fiber product, fibre product, fibered product or Cartesian square) is the limit of a diagram consisting of two morphisms and with a common codomain. The pullback is written :. Usually the morphisms and are omitted from the notation, and then the pullback is written :. The pullback comes equipped with two natural morphisms and . The pullback of two morphisms and need not exist, but if it does, it is essentially uniquely defined by the two morphisms. In many situations, may intuitively be thought of as consisting of pairs of elements with in , in , and . For the general definition, a universal property is used, which essentially expresses the fact that the pullback is the "most general" way to complete the two given morphisms to a commutative square. The dual concept of the pullback is the '' pushout''. Universal property Explicitly, a pullback of the morphisms f and g consists of an object ...
