Fitting Ideal
In commutative algebra, the Fitting ideals of a finitely generated module over a commutative ring In mathematics, a commutative ring is a Ring (mathematics), ring in which the multiplication operation is commutative. The study of commutative rings is called commutative algebra. Complementarily, noncommutative algebra is the study of ring prope ... describe the obstructions to generating the module by a given number of elements. They were introduced by . Definition If ''M'' is a finitely generated module over a commutative ring ''R'' generated by elements ''m''1,...,''m''''n'' with relations :a_m_1+\cdots + a_m_n=0\ (\textj = 1, 2, \dots) then the ''i''th Fitting ideal \operatorname_i(M) of ''M'' is generated by the minors (determinants of submatrices) of order n-i of the matrix a_. The Fitting ideals do not depend on the choice of generators and relations of ''M''. Some authors defined the Fitting ideal I(M) to be the first nonzero Fitting ideal \operatorname_i(M). Properti ...

Commutative Algebra
Commutative algebra, first known as ideal theory, is the branch of algebra that studies commutative rings, their ideal (ring theory), ideals, and module (mathematics), modules over such rings. Both algebraic geometry and algebraic number theory build on commutative algebra. Prominent examples of commutative rings include polynomial rings; rings of algebraic integers, including the ordinary integers \mathbb; and p-adic number, ''p''-adic integers. Commutative algebra is the main technical tool of algebraic geometry, and many results and concepts of commutative algebra are strongly related with geometrical concepts. The study of rings that are not necessarily commutative is known as noncommutative algebra; it includes ring theory, representation theory, and the theory of Banach algebras. Overview Commutative algebra is essentially the study of the rings occurring in algebraic number theory and algebraic geometry. Several concepts of commutative algebras have been developed in ...

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''. The set is referred to as a gene ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Commutative Ring
In mathematics, a commutative ring is a Ring (mathematics), ring in which the multiplication operation is commutative. The study of commutative rings is called commutative algebra. Complementarily, noncommutative algebra is the study of ring properties that are not specific to commutative rings. This distinction results from the high number of fundamental properties of commutative rings that do not extend to noncommutative rings. Commutative rings appear in the following chain of subclass (set theory), class inclusions: Definition and first examples Definition A ''ring'' is a Set (mathematics), set R equipped with two binary operations, i.e. operations combining any two elements of the ring to a third. They are called ''addition'' and ''multiplication'' and commonly denoted by "+" and "\cdot"; e.g. a+b and a \cdot b. To form a ring these two operations have to satisfy a number of properties: the ring has to be an abelian group under addition as well as a monoid under m ...

Alexander Polynomial
In mathematics, the Alexander polynomial is a knot invariant which assigns a polynomial with integer coefficients to each knot type. James Waddell Alexander II discovered this, the first knot polynomial, in 1923. In 1969, John Conway showed a version of this polynomial, now called the Alexander–Conway polynomial, could be computed using a skein relation, although its significance was not realized until the discovery of the Jones polynomial in 1984. Soon after Conway's reworking of the Alexander polynomial, it was realized that a similar skein relation was exhibited in Alexander's paper on his polynomial. Definition Let ''K'' be a knot in the 3-sphere. Let ''X'' be the infinite cyclic cover of the knot complement of ''K''. This covering can be obtained by cutting the knot complement along a Seifert surface of ''K'' and gluing together infinitely many copies of the resulting manifold with boundary in a cyclic manner. There is a covering transformation ''t'' acting on ''X ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Finite Morphism
In algebraic geometry, a finite morphism between two Affine variety, affine varieties X, Y is a dense Regular map (algebraic geometry), regular map which induces isomorphic inclusion k\left[Y\right]\hookrightarrow k\left[X\right] between their Coordinate ring, coordinate rings, such that k\left[X\right] is integral over k\left[Y\right]. This definition can be extended to the quasi-projective varieties, such that a Regular map (algebraic geometry), regular map f\colon X\to Y between quasiprojective varieties is finite if any point y\in Y has an affine neighbourhood V such that U=f^(V) is affine and f\colon U\to V is a finite map (in view of the previous definition, because it is between affine varieties). Definition by schemes A morphism ''f'': ''X'' → ''Y'' of scheme (mathematics), schemes is a finite morphism if ''Y'' has an open cover by affine schemes :V_i = \mbox \; B_i such that for each ''i'', :f^(V_i) = U_i is an open affine subscheme Spec ''A''''i'', and the restrictio ...

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 ...

Coherent Sheaf
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 ...
