Ample line bundleIn mathematics, a distinctive feature of algebraic geometry is that some line bundles on a projective variety can be considered "positive", while others are "negative" (or a mixture of the two). The most important notion of positivity is that of an ample line bundle, although there are several related classes of line bundles. Roughly speaking, positivity properties of a line bundle are related to having many global sections. Understanding the ample line bundles on a given variety X amounts to understanding the different ways of mapping X into projective space.
École italienne de géométrie algébriqueD'un point de vue historique, lécole italienne de géométrie algébrique fait référence à un grand groupe de mathématiciens italiens des XIXe et XXe siècles qui, avec leur travail vaste, profond et cohérent, mené méthodologiquement avec une approche d'étude et de recherche commune, a amené l'Italie au plus haut niveau en géométrie algébrique, en particulier en géométrie birationnelle et en théorie des surfaces algébriques, avec des résultats originaux de premier ordre. vignette|droite|Guido Castelnuovo (1865-1952).
Diviseur (géométrie algébrique)En mathématiques, plus précisément en géométrie algébrique, les diviseurs sont une généralisation des sous-variétés de codimension 1 de variétés algébriques ; deux généralisations différentes sont d'un usage commun : les diviseurs de Weil et les diviseurs de Cartier. Les deux concepts coïncident dans les cas des variétés non singulières. En géométrie algébrique, comme en géométrie analytique complexe, ou en géométrie arithmétique, les diviseurs forment un groupe qui permet de saisir la nature d'un schéma (une variété algébrique, une surface de Riemann, un anneau de Dedekind.
Homogeneous coordinate ringIn algebraic geometry, the homogeneous coordinate ring R of an algebraic variety V given as a subvariety of projective space of a given dimension N is by definition the quotient ring R = K[X0, X1, X2, ..., XN] / I where I is the homogeneous ideal defining V, K is the algebraically closed field over which V is defined, and K[X0, X1, X2, ..., XN] is the polynomial ring in N + 1 variables Xi. The polynomial ring is therefore the homogeneous coordinate ring of the projective space itself, and the variables are the homogeneous coordinates, for a given choice of basis (in the vector space underlying the projective space).
Intersection theoryIn mathematics, intersection theory is one of the main branches of algebraic geometry, where it gives information about the intersection of two subvarieties of a given variety. The theory for varieties is older, with roots in Bézout's theorem on curves and elimination theory. On the other hand, the topological theory more quickly reached a definitive form. There is yet an ongoing development of intersection theory. Currently the main focus is on: virtual fundamental cycles, quantum intersection rings, Gromov-Witten theory and the extension of intersection theory from schemes to stacks.
Nef line bundleIn algebraic geometry, a line bundle on a projective variety is nef if it has nonnegative degree on every curve in the variety. The classes of nef line bundles are described by a convex cone, and the possible contractions of the variety correspond to certain faces of the nef cone. In view of the correspondence between line bundles and divisors (built from codimension-1 subvarieties), there is an equivalent notion of a nef divisor. More generally, a line bundle L on a proper scheme X over a field k is said to be nef if it has nonnegative degree on every (closed irreducible) curve in X.
Glossary of algebraic geometryThis is a glossary of algebraic geometry. See also glossary of commutative algebra, glossary of classical algebraic geometry, and glossary of ring theory. For the number-theoretic applications, see glossary of arithmetic and Diophantine geometry. For simplicity, a reference to the base scheme is often omitted; i.e., a scheme will be a scheme over some fixed base scheme S and a morphism an S-morphism.
Algebraic surfaceIn mathematics, an algebraic surface is an algebraic variety of dimension two. In the case of geometry over the field of complex numbers, an algebraic surface has complex dimension two (as a complex manifold, when it is non-singular) and so of dimension four as a smooth manifold. The theory of algebraic surfaces is much more complicated than that of algebraic curves (including the compact Riemann surfaces, which are genuine surfaces of (real) dimension two).
Variété projectiveEn géométrie algébrique, les variétés projectives forment une classe importante de variétés. Elles vérifient des propriétés de compacité et des propriétés de finitude. C'est l'objet central de la géométrie algébrique globale. Sur un corps algébriquement clos, les points d'une variété projective sont les points d'un ensemble algébrique projectif. On fixe un corps (commutatif) k. Algèbre homogène. Soit B le quotient de par un idéal homogène ( idéal engendré par des polynômes homogènes).
