Néron–Ogg–Shafarevich Criterion
In mathematics, the Néron–Ogg–Shafarevich criterion states that if ''A'' is an elliptic curve or abelian variety over a local field ''K'' and ℓ is a prime not dividing the characteristic of the residue field In mathematics, the residue field is a basic construction in commutative algebra. If ''R'' is a commutative ring and ''m'' is a maximal ideal, then the residue field is the quotient ring ''k'' = ''R''/''m'', which is a field. Frequently, ''R'' is ... of ''K'' then ''A'' has good reduction if and only if the ℓ-adic Tate module ''T''ℓ of ''A'' is Ramification of Galois representations, unramified. introduced the criterion for elliptic curves. used the results of to extend it to abelian varieties, and named the criterion after Ogg, Néron and Igor Shafarevich (commenting that Ogg's result seems to have been known to Shafarevich).

Mathematics
Mathematics is an area of knowledge that includes the topics of numbers, formulas and related structures, shapes and the spaces in which they are contained, and quantities and their changes. These topics are represented in modern mathematics with the major subdisciplines of number theory, algebra, geometry, and analysis, respectively. There is no general consensus among mathematicians about a common definition for their academic discipline. Most mathematical activity involves the discovery of properties of abstract objects and the use of pure reason to prove them. These objects consist of either abstractions from nature orin modern mathematicsentities that are stipulated to have certain properties, called axioms. A ''proof'' consists of a succession of applications of deductive rules to already established results. These results include previously proved theorems, axioms, andin case of abstraction from naturesome basic properties that are considered true starting poin ...

Elliptic Curve
In mathematics, an elliptic curve is a smooth, projective, algebraic curve of genus one, on which there is a specified point . An elliptic curve is defined over a field and describes points in , the Cartesian product of with itself. If the field's characteristic is different from 2 and 3, then the curve can be described as a plane algebraic curve which consists of solutions for: :y^2 = x^3 + ax + b for some coefficients and in . The curve is required to be non-singular, which means that the curve has no cusps or self-intersections. (This is equivalent to the condition , that is, being square-free in .) It is always understood that the curve is really sitting in the projective plane, with the point being the unique point at infinity. Many sources define an elliptic curve to be simply a curve given by an equation of this form. (When the coefficient field has characteristic 2 or 3, the above equation is not quite general enough to include all non-singular cub ...

Abelian Variety
In mathematics, particularly in algebraic geometry, complex analysis and algebraic number theory, an abelian variety is a projective algebraic variety that is also an algebraic group, i.e., has a group law that can be defined by regular functions. Abelian varieties are at the same time among the most studied objects in algebraic geometry and indispensable tools for much research on other topics in algebraic geometry and number theory. An abelian variety can be defined by equations having coefficients in any field; the variety is then said to be defined ''over'' that field. Historically the first abelian varieties to be studied were those defined over the field of complex numbers. Such abelian varieties turn out to be exactly those complex tori that can be embedded into a complex projective space. Abelian varieties defined over algebraic number fields are a special case, which is important also from the viewpoint of number theory. Localization techniques lead naturally fr ...

Local Field
In mathematics, a field ''K'' is called a (non-Archimedean) local field if it is complete with respect to a topology induced by a discrete valuation ''v'' and if its residue field ''k'' is finite. Equivalently, a local field is a locally compact topological field with respect to a non-discrete topology. Sometimes, real numbers R, and the complex numbers C (with their standard topologies) are also defined to be local fields; this is the convention we will adopt below. Given a local field, the valuation defined on it can be of either of two types, each one corresponds to one of the two basic types of local fields: those in which the valuation is Archimedean and those in which it is not. In the first case, one calls the local field an Archimedean local field, in the second case, one calls it a non-Archimedean local field. Local fields arise naturally in number theory as completions of global fields. While Archimedean local fields have been quite well known in mathematics for a ...

Prime Number
A prime number (or a prime) is a natural number greater than 1 that is not a product of two smaller natural numbers. A natural number greater than 1 that is not prime is called a composite number. For example, 5 is prime because the only ways of writing it as a product, or , involve 5 itself. However, 4 is composite because it is a product (2 × 2) in which both numbers are smaller than 4. Primes are central in number theory because of the fundamental theorem of arithmetic: every natural number greater than 1 is either a prime itself or can be factorized as a product of primes that is unique up to their order. The property of being prime is called primality. A simple but slow method of checking the primality of a given number n, called trial division, tests whether n is a multiple of any integer between 2 and \sqrt. Faster algorithms include the Miller–Rabin primality test, which is fast but has a small chance of error, and the AKS primality test, which alw ...

Residue Field
In mathematics, the residue field is a basic construction in commutative algebra. If ''R'' is a commutative ring and ''m'' is a maximal ideal, then the residue field is the quotient ring ''k'' = ''R''/''m'', which is a field. Frequently, ''R'' is a local ring and ''m'' is then its unique maximal ideal. This construction is applied in algebraic geometry, where to every point ''x'' of a scheme ''X'' one associates its residue field ''k''(''x''). One can say a little loosely that the residue field of a point of an abstract algebraic variety is the 'natural domain' for the coordinates of the point. Definition Suppose that ''R'' is a commutative local ring, with maximal ideal ''m''. Then the residue field is the quotient ring ''R''/''m''. Now suppose that ''X'' is a scheme and ''x'' is a point of ''X''. By the definition of scheme, we may find an affine neighbourhood ''U'' = Spec(''A''), with ''A'' some commutative ring. Considered in the neighbourhood ''U'', the point ''x'' c ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Tate Module
In mathematics, a Tate module of an abelian group, named for John Tate, is a module constructed from an abelian group ''A''. Often, this construction is made in the following situation: ''G'' is a commutative group scheme over a field ''K'', ''Ks'' is the separable closure of ''K'', and ''A'' = ''G''(''Ks'') (the ''Ks''-valued points of ''G''). In this case, the Tate module of ''A'' is equipped with an action of the absolute Galois group of ''K'', and it is referred to as the Tate module of ''G''. Definition Given an abelian group ''A'' and a prime number ''p'', the ''p''-adic Tate module of ''A'' is :T_p(A)=\underset A ^n/math> where ''A'' 'pn''is the ''pn'' torsion of ''A'' (i.e. the kernel of the multiplication-by-''pn'' map), and the inverse limit is over positive integers ''n'' with transition morphisms given by the multiplication-by-''p'' map ''A'' 'p''''n''+1→ ''A'' 'pn'' Thus, the Tate module encodes all the ''p''-power torsion of ''A''. It is equipped ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Ramification Of Galois Representations
In mathematics, a Galois module is a ''G''-module, with ''G'' being the Galois group of some extension of fields. The term Galois representation is frequently used when the ''G''-module is a vector space over a field or a free module over a ring in representation theory, but can also be used as a synonym for ''G''-module. The study of Galois modules for extensions of local or global fields and their group cohomology is an important tool in number theory. Examples *Given a field ''K'', the multiplicative group (''Ks'')× of a separable closure of ''K'' is a Galois module for the absolute Galois group. Its second cohomology group is isomorphic to the Brauer group of ''K'' (by Hilbert's theorem 90, its first cohomology group is zero). *If ''X'' is a smooth proper scheme over a field ''K'' then the ℓ-adic cohomology groups of its geometric fibre are Galois modules for the absolute Galois group of ''K''. Ramification theory Let ''K'' be a valued field (with valuation denoted ''v'' ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Igor Shafarevich
Igor Rostislavovich Shafarevich (russian: И́горь Ростисла́вович Шафаре́вич; 3 June 1923 – 19 February 2017) was a Soviet and Russian mathematician who contributed to algebraic number theory and algebraic geometry. Outside mathematics, he wrote books and articles that criticised socialism and other books which were (controversially) described as anti-semitic. Mathematics From his early years, Shafarevich made fundamental contributions to several parts of mathematics including algebraic number theory, algebraic geometry and arithmetic algebraic geometry. In particular, in algebraic number theory, the Shafarevich–Weil theorem extends the commutative reciprocity map to the case of Galois groups, which are central extensions of abelian groups by finite groups. Shafarevich was the first mathematician to give a completely self-contained formula for the Hilbert pairing, thus initiating an important branch of the study of explicit formulas in nu ...

American Journal Of Mathematics
The ''American Journal of Mathematics'' is a bimonthly mathematics journal published by the Johns Hopkins University Press. History The ''American Journal of Mathematics'' is the oldest continuously published mathematical journal in the United States, established in 1878 at the Johns Hopkins University by James Joseph Sylvester, an English-born mathematician who also served as the journal's editor-in-chief from its inception through early 1884. Initially W. E. Story was associate editor in charge; he was replaced by Thomas Craig in 1880. For volume 7 Simon Newcomb became chief editor with Craig managing until 1894. Then with volume 16 it was "Edited by Thomas Craig with the Co-operation of Simon Newcomb" until 1898. Other notable mathematicians who have served as editors or editorial associates of the journal include Frank Morley, Oscar Zariski, Lars Ahlfors, Hermann Weyl, Wei-Liang Chow, S. S.

Annals Of Mathematics
The ''Annals of Mathematics'' is a mathematical journal published every two months by Princeton University and the Institute for Advanced Study. History The journal was established as ''The Analyst'' in 1874 and with Joel E. Hendricks as the founding editor-in-chief. It was "intended to afford a medium for the presentation and analysis of any and all questions of interest or importance in pure and applied Mathematics, embracing especially all new and interesting discoveries in theoretical and practical astronomy, mechanical philosophy, and engineering". It was published in Des Moines, Iowa, and was the earliest American mathematics journal to be published continuously for more than a year or two. This incarnation of the journal ceased publication after its tenth year, in 1883, giving as an explanation Hendricks' declining health, but Hendricks made arrangements to have it taken over by new management, and it was continued from March 1884 as the ''Annals of Mathematics''.
