Coherent Sheaves
In mathematics, especially in algebraic geometry and the theory of complex manifolds, coherent sheaves are a class of sheaves closely linked to the geometric properties of the underlying space. The definition of coherent sheaves is made with reference to a sheaf of rings that codifies this geometric information. Coherent sheaves can be seen as a generalization of vector bundles. Unlike vector bundles, they form an abelian category, and so they are closed under operations such as taking kernels, images, and cokernels. The quasi-coherent sheaves are a generalization of coherent sheaves and include the locally free sheaves of infinite rank. Coherent sheaf cohomology is a powerful technique, in particular for studying the sections of a given coherent sheaf. Definitions A quasi-coherent sheaf on a ringed space (X, \mathcal O_X) is a sheaf \mathcal F of \mathcal O_X- modules that has a local presentation, that is, every point in X has an open neighborhood U in which there is ...

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 ...

Finitely Generated Module
In mathematics, a finitely generated module is a module that has a finite generating set. A finitely generated module over a ring ''R'' may also be called a finite ''R''-module, finite over ''R'', or a module of finite type. Related concepts include finitely cogenerated modules, finitely presented modules, finitely related modules and coherent modules all of which are defined below. Over a Noetherian ring the concepts of finitely generated, finitely presented and coherent modules coincide. A finitely generated module over a field is simply a finite-dimensional vector space, and a finitely generated module over the integers is simply a finitely generated abelian group. Definition The left ''R''-module ''M'' is finitely generated if there exist ''a''1, ''a''2, ..., ''a''''n'' in ''M'' such that for any ''x'' in ''M'', there exist ''r''1, ''r''2, ..., ''r''''n'' in ''R'' with ''x'' = ''r''1''a''1 + ''r''2''a''2 + ... + ''r''''n''''a''''n''.

Section (fiber Bundle)
In the mathematical field of topology, a section (or cross section) of a fiber bundle E is a continuous right inverse of the projection function \pi. In other words, if E is a fiber bundle over a base space, B: : \pi \colon E \to B then a section of that fiber bundle is a continuous map, : \sigma \colon B \to E such that : \pi(\sigma(x)) = x for all x \in B . A section is an abstract characterization of what it means to be a graph. The graph of a function g\colon B \to Y can be identified with a function taking its values in the Cartesian product E = B \times Y , of B and Y : :\sigma\colon B\to E, \quad \sigma(x) = (x,g(x)) \in E. Let \pi\colon E \to B be the projection onto the first factor: \pi(x,y) = x . Then a graph is any function \sigma for which \pi(\sigma(x)) = x . The language of fibre bundles allows this notion of a section to be generalized to the case when E is not necessarily a Cartesian product. If \pi\colon E \to B is a fibre bundle ...

Vector Bundle
In mathematics, a vector bundle is a topological construction that makes precise the idea of a family of vector spaces parameterized by another space X (for example X could be a topological space, a manifold, or an algebraic variety): to every point x of the space X we associate (or "attach") a vector space V(x) in such a way that these vector spaces fit together to form another space of the same kind as X (e.g. a topological space, manifold, or algebraic variety), which is then called a vector bundle over X. The simplest example is the case that the family of vector spaces is constant, i.e., there is a fixed vector space V such that V(x)=V for all x in X: in this case there is a copy of V for each x in X and these copies fit together to form the vector bundle X\times V over X. Such vector bundles are said to be ''trivial''. A more complicated (and prototypical) class of examples are the tangent bundles of smooth (or differentiable) manifolds: to every point of such a mani ...

Noetherian Scheme
In algebraic geometry, a Noetherian scheme is a scheme that admits a finite covering by open affine subsets \operatorname A_i, where each A_i is a Noetherian ring. 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 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. For a locally Noetherian scheme ''X,'' the local rings \mathcal_ are also 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 ...

Complex Analytic Space
In mathematics, particularly differential geometry and complex geometry, a complex analytic varietyComplex analytic variety (or just variety) is sometimes required to be irreducible and (or) Reduced ring, reduced or complex analytic space is a generalization of a complex manifold that allows the presence of singularity theory, singularities. Complex analytic varieties are locally ringed spaces that are locally isomorphic to local model spaces, where a local model space is an open subset of the vanishing locus of a finite set of holomorphic functions. Definition Denote the constant sheaf, constant sheaf (mathematics), sheaf on a topological space with value \mathbb by \underline. A \mathbb-space is a locally ringed space (X, \mathcal_X), whose structure sheaf is an algebra over a field, algebra over \underline. Choose an open subset U of some complex affine space \mathbb^n, and fix finitely many holomorphic functions f_1,\dots,f_k in U. Let X=V(f_1,\dots,f_k) be the common vanis ...

Holomorphic Function
In mathematics, a holomorphic function is a complex-valued function of one or more complex variables that is complex differentiable in a neighbourhood of each point in a domain in complex coordinate space . The existence of a complex derivative in a neighbourhood is a very strong condition: It implies that a holomorphic function is infinitely differentiable and locally equal to its own Taylor series (is '' analytic''). Holomorphic functions are the central objects of study in complex analysis. Though the term '' analytic function'' is often used interchangeably with "holomorphic function", the word "analytic" is defined in a broader sense to denote any function (real, complex, or of more general type) that can be written as a convergent power series in a neighbourhood of each point in its domain. That all holomorphic functions are complex analytic functions, and vice versa, is a major theorem in complex analysis. Holomorphic functions are also sometimes referred to ...

Extension Of Modules
In mathematics, the Ext functors are the derived functors of the Hom functor. Along with the Tor functor, Ext is one of the core concepts of homological algebra, in which ideas from algebraic topology are used to define invariants of algebraic structures. The cohomology of groups, Lie algebras, and associative algebras can all be defined in terms of Ext. The name comes from the fact that the first Ext group Ext1 classifies extensions of one module by another. In the special case of abelian groups, Ext was introduced by Reinhold Baer (1934). It was named by Samuel Eilenberg and Saunders MacLane (1942), and applied to topology (the universal coefficient theorem for cohomology). For modules over any ring, Ext was defined by Henri Cartan and Eilenberg in their 1956 book ''Homological Algebra''. Definition Let R be a ring and let R\text be the category of modules over R. (One can take this to mean either left R-modules or right R-modules.) For a fixed R-module A, let T(B)=\text_R(A, ...

Direct Sum
The direct sum is an operation between structures in abstract algebra, a branch of mathematics. It is defined differently but analogously for different kinds of structures. As an example, the direct sum of two abelian groups A and B is another abelian group A\oplus B consisting of the ordered pairs (a,b) where a \in A and b \in B. To add ordered pairs, the sum is defined (a, b) + (c, d) to be (a + c, b + d); in other words, addition is defined coordinate-wise. For example, the direct sum \Reals \oplus \Reals , where \Reals is real coordinate space, is the Cartesian plane, \R ^2 . A similar process can be used to form the direct sum of two vector spaces or two modules. Direct sums can also be formed with any finite number of summands; for example, A \oplus B \oplus C, provided A, B, and C are the same kinds of algebraic structures (e.g., all abelian groups, or all vector spaces). That relies on the fact that the direct sum is associative up to isomorphism. That is, (A ... [...More Info...]       [...Related Items...]     OR:     [Wikipedia]   [Google]   [Baidu]   |

Full Subcategory
In mathematics, specifically category theory, a subcategory of a category ''C'' is a category ''S'' whose objects are objects in ''C'' and whose morphisms are morphisms in ''C'' with the same identities and composition of morphisms. Intuitively, a subcategory of ''C'' is a category obtained from ''C'' by "removing" some of its objects and arrows. Formal definition Let ''C'' be a category. A subcategory ''S'' of ''C'' is given by *a subcollection of objects of ''C'', denoted ob(''S''), *a subcollection of morphisms of ''C'', denoted hom(''S''). such that *for every ''X'' in ob(''S''), the identity morphism id''X'' is in hom(''S''), *for every morphism ''f'' : ''X'' → ''Y'' in hom(''S''), both the source ''X'' and the target ''Y'' are in ob(''S''), *for every pair of morphisms ''f'' and ''g'' in hom(''S'') the composite ''f'' o ''g'' is in hom(''S'') whenever it is defined. These conditions ensure that ''S'' is a category in its own right: its collection of objects is ob(''S ...
