Kleiman's Theorem
In algebraic geometry, Kleiman's theorem, introduced by , concerns dimension and smoothness of scheme-theoretic intersection after some perturbation of factors in the intersection. Precisely, it states: given a connected algebraic group ''G'' acting transitively on an algebraic variety ''X'' over an algebraically closed field ''k'' and V_i \to X, i = 1, 2 morphisms of varieties, ''G'' contains a nonempty open subset such that for each ''g'' in the set, # either gV_1 \times_X V_2 is empty or has pure dimension \dim V_1 + \dim V_2 - \dim X, where g V_1 is V_1 \to X \overset\to X, # (Kleiman–Bertini theorem) If V_i are smooth varieties and if the characteristic of the base field ''k'' is zero, then gV_1 \times_X V_2 is smooth. Statement 1 establishes a version of Chow's moving lemma: after some perturbation of cycles on ''X'', their intersection has expected dimension. Sketch of proof We write f_i for V_i \to X. Let h: G \times V_1 \to X be the composition that is (1_G, f_1): ... [...More Info...]       [...Related Items...]     OR:     [Wikipedia]   [Google]   [Baidu]   |

Dimension Of A Scheme
In algebraic geometry, the dimension of a scheme is a generalization of a dimension of an algebraic variety. Scheme theory emphasizes the relative point of view and, accordingly, the relative dimension of a morphism of schemes is also important. Definition By definition, the dimension of a scheme ''X'' is the dimension of the underlying topological space: the supremum of the lengths ''ℓ'' of chains of irreducible closed subsets: :\emptyset \ne V_0 \subsetneq V_1 \subsetneq \cdots \subsetneq V_\ell \subset X. In particular, if X = \operatorname A is an affine scheme, then such chains correspond to chains of prime ideals (inclusion reversed) and so the dimension of ''X'' is precisely the Krull dimension of ''A''. If ''Y'' is an irreducible closed subset of a scheme ''X'', then the codimension of ''Y'' in ''X'' is the supremum of the lengths ''ℓ'' of chains of irreducible closed subsets: :Y = V_0 \subsetneq V_1 \subsetneq \cdots \subsetneq V_\ell \subset X. An irreducible subset ... [...More Info...]       [...Related Items...]     OR:     [Wikipedia]   [Google]   [Baidu]   |

Scheme-theoretic Intersection
In algebraic geometry, the scheme-theoretic intersection of closed subschemes ''X'', ''Y'' of a scheme ''W'' is X \times_W Y, the fiber product of the closed immersions X \hookrightarrow W, Y \hookrightarrow W. It is denoted by X \cap Y. Locally, ''W'' is given as \operatorname R for some ring ''R'' and ''X'', ''Y'' as \operatorname(R/I), \operatorname(R/J) for some ideals ''I'', ''J''. Thus, locally, the intersection X \cap Y is given as :\operatorname(R/(I+J)). Here, we used R/I \otimes_R R/J \simeq R/(I + J) (for this identity, see tensor product of modules#Examples.) Example: Let X \subset \mathbb^n be a projective variety with the homogeneous coordinate ring ''S/I'', where ''S'' is a polynomial ring. If H = \ \subset \mathbb^n is a hypersurface defined by some homogeneous polynomial ''f'' in ''S'', then : X \cap H = \operatorname(S/(I, f)). If ''f'' is linear (deg = 1), it is called a hyperplane section. See also: Bertini's theorem. Now, a scheme-theoretic intersection may ...

Group-scheme Action
In algebraic geometry, an action of a group scheme is a generalization of a group action to a group scheme. Precisely, given a group ''S''-scheme ''G'', a left action of ''G'' on an ''S''-scheme ''X'' is an ''S''-morphism :\sigma: G \times_S X \to X such that * (associativity) \sigma \circ (1_G \times \sigma) = \sigma \circ (m \times 1_X), where m: G \times_S G \to G is the group law, * (unitality) \sigma \circ (e \times 1_X) = 1_X, where e: S \to G is the identity section of ''G''. A right action of ''G'' on ''X'' is defined analogously. A scheme equipped with a left or right action of a group scheme ''G'' is called a ''G''-scheme. An equivariant morphism between ''G''-schemes is a morphism of schemes that intertwines the respective ''G''-actions. More generally, one can also consider (at least some special case of) an action of a group functor: viewing ''G'' as a functor, an action is given as a natural transformation satisfying the conditions analogous to the above.In detai ...

Bertini Theorem
In mathematics, the theorem of Bertini is an existence and genericity theorem for smooth connected hyperplane sections for smooth projective varieties over algebraically closed fields, introduced by Eugenio Bertini. This is the simplest and broadest of the "Bertini theorems" applying to a linear system of divisors; simplest because there is no restriction on the characteristic of the underlying field, while the extensions require characteristic 0. Statement for hyperplane sections of smooth varieties Let ''X'' be a smooth quasi-projective variety over an algebraically closed field, embedded in a projective space \mathbf P^n. Let , H, denote the complete system of hyperplane divisors in \mathbf P^n. Recall that it is the dual space (\mathbf P^n)^ of \mathbf P^n and is isomorphic to \mathbf P^n. The theorem of Bertini states that the set of hyperplanes not containing ''X'' and with smooth intersection with ''X'' contains an open dense subset of the total system of divisors , ...

Chow's Moving Lemma
In algebraic geometry, Chow's moving lemma, proved by , states: given algebraic cycles ''Y'', ''Z'' on a nonsingular quasi-projective variety ''X'', there is another algebraic cycle ''Z' '' on ''X'' such that ''Z' '' is rationally equivalent In algebraic geometry, a branch of mathematics, an adequate equivalence relation is an equivalence relation on algebraic cycles of smooth projective varieties used to obtain a well-working theory of such cycles, and in particular, well-defined inte ... to ''Z'' and ''Y'' and ''Z' '' intersect properly. The lemma is one of key ingredients in developing the intersection theory, as it is used to show the uniqueness of the theory. Even if ''Z'' is an effective cycle, it is not, in general, possible to choose the cycle ''Z' '' to be effective.

Fiber Product Of Schemes
In mathematics, specifically in algebraic geometry, the fiber product of schemes is a fundamental construction. It has many interpretations and special cases. For example, the fiber product describes how an algebraic variety over one field determines a variety over a bigger field, or the pullback of a family of varieties, or a fiber of a family of varieties. Base change is a closely related notion. Definition The category of schemes is a broad setting for algebraic geometry. A fruitful philosophy (known as Grothendieck's relative point of view) is that much of algebraic geometry should be developed for a morphism of schemes ''X'' → ''Y'' (called a scheme ''X'' over ''Y''), rather than for a single scheme ''X''. For example, rather than simply studying algebraic curves, one can study families of curves over any base scheme ''Y''. Indeed, the two approaches enrich each other. In particular, a scheme over a commutative ring ''R'' means a scheme ''X'' together with a morphi ... [...More Info...]       [...Related Items...]     OR:     [Wikipedia]   [Google]   [Baidu]   |

Projection (mathematics)
In mathematics, a projection is a mapping of a set (or other mathematical structure) into a subset (or sub-structure), which is equal to its square for mapping composition, i.e., which is idempotent. The restriction to a subspace of a projection is also called a ''projection'', even if the idempotence property is lost. An everyday example of a projection is the casting of shadows onto a plane (sheet of paper): the projection of a point is its shadow on the sheet of paper, and the projection (shadow) of a point on the sheet of paper is that point itself (idempotency). The shadow of a three-dimensional sphere is a closed disk. Originally, the notion of projection was introduced in Euclidean geometry to denote the projection of the three-dimensional Euclidean space onto a plane in it, like the shadow example. The two main projections of this kind are: * The projection from a point onto a plane or central projection: If ''C'' is a point, called the center of projection, then th ...

Smooth Morphism
In algebraic geometry, a morphism f:X \to S between schemes is said to be smooth if *(i) it is locally of finite presentation *(ii) it is flat, and *(iii) for every geometric point \overline \to S the fiber X_ = X \times_S is regular. (iii) means that each geometric fiber of ''f'' is a nonsingular variety (if it is separated). Thus, intuitively speaking, a smooth morphism gives a flat family of nonsingular varieties. If ''S'' is the spectrum of an algebraically closed field and ''f'' is of finite type, then one recovers the definition of a nonsingular variety. Equivalent definitions There are many equivalent definitions of a smooth morphism. Let f: X \to S be locally of finite presentation. Then the following are equivalent. # ''f'' is smooth. # ''f'' is formally smooth (see below). # ''f'' is flat and the sheaf of relative differentials \Omega_ is locally free of rank equal to the relative dimension of X/S. # For any x \in X, there exists a neighborhood \operatornameB of ...

Generic Smoothness
In algebraic geometry, a smooth scheme over a field is a 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 points. A special case is the notion of a smooth 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 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 at least ''m'' in a neighborhood of each point, and the matrix of derivatives (∂''g''''i''/∂''x''''j'') has rank at least ''n''−''m'' everywhere on ''X''. (It follows that ''X'' has dimensio ... [...More Info...]       [...Related Items...]     OR:     [Wikipedia]   [Google]   [Baidu]   |

Ergebnisse Der Mathematik Und Ihrer Grenzgebiete
''Ergebnisse der Mathematik und ihrer Grenzgebiete''/''A Series of Modern Surveys in Mathematics'' is a series of scholarly monographs published by Springer Science+Business Media. The title literally means "Results in mathematics and related areas". Most of the books were published in German or English, but there were a few in French and Italian. There have been several sequences, or ''Folge'': the original series, neue Folge, and 3.Folge. Some of the most significant mathematical monographs of 20th century appeared in this series. Original series The series started in 1932 with publication of ''Knotentheorie'' by Kurt Reidemeister as "Band 1" (English: volume 1). There seems to have been double numeration in this sequence. Neue Folge This sequence started in 1950 with the publication of ''Transfinite Zahlen'' by Heinz Bachmann. The volumes are consecutively numbered, designated as either "Band" or "Heft".
