Mathematics
Mathematics is a field of study that discovers and organizes methods, Mathematical theory, theories and theorems that are developed and Mathematical proof, proved for the needs of empirical sciences and mathematics itself. There are many areas of mathematics, which include number theory (the study of numbers), algebra (the study of formulas and related structures), geometry (the study of shapes and spaces that contain them), Mathematical analysis, analysis (the study of continuous changes), and set theory (presently used as a foundation for all mathematics). Mathematics involves the description and manipulation of mathematical object, abstract objects that consist of either abstraction (mathematics), abstractions from nature orin modern mathematicspurely abstract entities that are stipulated to have certain properties, called axioms. Mathematics uses pure reason to proof (mathematics), prove properties of objects, a ''proof'' consisting of a succession of applications of in ...

Algebra
Algebra is a branch of mathematics that deals with abstract systems, known as algebraic structures, and the manipulation of expressions within those systems. It is a generalization of arithmetic that introduces variables and algebraic operations other than the standard arithmetic operations, such as addition and multiplication. Elementary algebra is the main form of algebra taught in schools. It examines mathematical statements using variables for unspecified values and seeks to determine for which values the statements are true. To do so, it uses different methods of transforming equations to isolate variables. Linear algebra is a closely related field that investigates linear equations and combinations of them called '' systems of linear equations''. It provides methods to find the values that solve all equations in the system at the same time, and to study the set of these solutions. Abstract algebra studies algebraic structures, which consist of a set of mathemati ...

Étale Morphism
In algebraic geometry, an étale morphism () is a morphism of schemes that is formally étale and locally of finite presentation. This is an algebraic analogue of the notion of a local isomorphism in the complex analytic topology. They satisfy the hypotheses of the implicit function theorem, but because open sets in the Zariski topology are so large, they are not necessarily local isomorphisms. Despite this, étale maps retain many of the properties of local analytic isomorphisms, and are useful in defining the algebraic fundamental group and the étale topology. The word ''étale'' is a French adjective, which means "slack", as in "slack tide", or, figuratively, calm, immobile, something left to settle. Definition Let \phi : R \to S be a ring homomorphism. This makes S an R-algebra. Choose a monic polynomial f in R /math> and a polynomial g in R /math> such that the derivative f' of f is a unit in (R fR _g. We say that \phi is ''standard étale'' if f and g can be cho ...

Formally étale Morphism
In commutative algebra and algebraic geometry, a morphism is called formally étale if it has a lifting property that is analogous to being a local diffeomorphism. Formally étale homomorphisms of rings Let ''A'' be a topological ring, and let ''B'' be a topological ''A''-algebra. Then ''B'' is formally étale if for all discrete ''A''-algebras ''C'', all nilpotent ideals ''J'' of ''C'', and all continuous ''A''-homomorphisms , there exists a unique continuous ''A''-algebra map such that , where is the canonical projection. Formally étale is equivalent to formally smooth plus formally unramified. Formally étale morphisms of schemes Since the structure sheaf of a scheme naturally carries only the discrete topology, the notion of formally étale for schemes is analogous to formally étale for the discrete topology for rings. That is, a morphism of schemes is formally étale if for every affine ''Y''-scheme ''Z'', every nilpotent sheaf of ideals ''J'' on ''Z'' with ...

Étale Cohomology
In mathematics, the étale cohomology groups of an algebraic variety or scheme are algebraic analogues of the usual cohomology groups with finite coefficients of a topological space, introduced by Grothendieck in order to prove the Weil conjectures. Étale cohomology theory can be used to construct ℓ-adic cohomology, which is an example of a Weil cohomology theory in algebraic geometry. This has many applications, such as the proof of the Weil conjectures and the construction of representations of finite groups of Lie type. History Étale cohomology was introduced by , using some suggestions by Jean-Pierre Serre, and was motivated by the attempt to construct a Weil cohomology theory in order to prove the Weil conjectures. The foundations were soon after worked out by Grothendieck together with Michael Artin, and published as and SGA 4. Grothendieck used étale cohomology to prove some of the Weil conjectures (Bernard Dwork had already managed to prove the rationality pa ...

Étale Fundamental Group
The étale or algebraic fundamental group is an analogue in algebraic geometry, for schemes, of the usual fundamental group of topological spaces. Topological analogue/informal discussion In algebraic topology, the fundamental group \pi_1(X,x) of a pointed topological space (X, x) is defined as the group of homotopy classes of loops based at x. This definition works well for spaces such as real and complex manifolds, but gives undesirable results for an algebraic variety with the Zariski topology. In the classification of covering spaces, it is shown that the fundamental group is exactly the group of deck transformations of the universal covering space. This is more promising: finite étale morphisms of algebraic varieties are the appropriate analogue of covering spaces of topological spaces. Unfortunately, an algebraic variety X often fails to have a "universal cover" that is finite over ''X'', so one must consider the entire category of finite étale coverings of ''X''. O ...

Étale Algebra
In commutative algebra, an étale algebra over a field (mathematics), field is a special type of algebra (ring theory), algebra, one that is isomorphism, isomorphic to a finite product of finite extension, finite separable field extensions. An étale algebra is a special sort of commutative separable algebra. Definitions Let be a field. Let be a commutative unital algebra, unital associative -algebra. Then is called an ''étale -algebra'' if any one of the following equivalent conditions holds: Examples The \mathbb-algebra \mathbb(i) is étale because it is a finite separable field extension. The \mathbb-algebra \mathbb[x]/(x^2) of dual numbers is not étale, since \mathbb[x]/(x^2)\otimes_\mathbb\mathbb \simeq \mathbb[x]/(x^2). Properties Let denote the absolute Galois group of . Then the category (mathematics), category of étale -algebras is equivalence of categories, equivalent to the category of finite group action, -sets with continuous -action. In particular, � ...

Sheaf (mathematics)
In mathematics, a sheaf (: sheaves) is a tool for systematically tracking data (such as sets, abelian groups, rings) attached to the open sets of a topological space and defined locally with regard to them. For example, for each open set, the data could be the ring of continuous functions defined on that open set. Such data are well-behaved in that they can be restricted to smaller open sets, and also the data assigned to an open set are equivalent to all collections of compatible data assigned to collections of smaller open sets covering the original open set (intuitively, every datum is the sum of its constituent data). The field of mathematics that studies sheaves is called sheaf theory. Sheaves are understood conceptually as general and abstract objects. Their precise definition is rather technical. They are specifically defined as sheaves of sets or as sheaves of rings, for example, depending on the type of data assigned to the open sets. There are also maps (or ...
