Homogeneous coordinate ring
In 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).
Courbe hyperelliptique
droite|vignette|Une courbe hyperelliptique, d'équation En géométrie algébrique, une courbe hyperelliptique est un cas particulier de courbe algébrique de genre g > 1 donnée par une équation de la forme : où f(x) est un polynôme de degré n = 2g + 1 > 4 ou avec n = 2g + 2 > 4 racines distinctes et h(x) est un polynôme de degré strictement inférieur à g + 2 (si la caractéristique du corps commutatif n'est pas 2, on peut prendre h(x) = 0).
Twisted cubic
In mathematics, a twisted cubic is a smooth, rational curve C of degree three in projective 3-space P3. It is a fundamental example of a skew curve. It is essentially unique, up to projective transformation (the twisted cubic, therefore). In algebraic geometry, the twisted cubic is a simple example of a projective variety that is not linear or a hypersurface, in fact not a complete intersection. It is the three-dimensional case of the rational normal curve, and is the of a Veronese map of degree three on the projective line.
Degree of an algebraic variety
In mathematics, the degree of an affine or projective variety of dimension n is the number of intersection points of the variety with n hyperplanes in general position. For an algebraic set, the intersection points must be counted with their intersection multiplicity, because of the possibility of multiple components. For (irreducible) varieties, if one takes into account the multiplicities and, in the affine case, the points at infinity, the hypothesis of general position may be replaced by the much weaker condition that the intersection of the variety has the dimension zero (that is, consists of a finite number of points).
Glossary of algebraic geometry
This 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.
Canonical bundle
In mathematics, the canonical bundle of a non-singular algebraic variety of dimension over a field is the line bundle , which is the nth exterior power of the cotangent bundle on . Over the complex numbers, it is the determinant bundle of the holomorphic cotangent bundle . Equivalently, it is the line bundle of holomorphic n-forms on . This is the dualising object for Serre duality on . It may equally well be considered as an invertible sheaf.
Ample line bundle
In 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.
Variété projective
En 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).
Courbe algébrique
En mathématiques, et plus précisément en géométrie algébrique, une courbe algébrique est une variété algébrique (ou un schéma de type fini) sur un corps, dont les composantes irréductibles sont de dimension 1. Cette définition est la généralisation moderne de celle des courbes algébriques classiques, telles que les coniques, définies, dans le cas des courbes planes, comme l'ensemble des points solutions d'une équation polynomiale. Sous sa forme la plus générale, une courbe algébrique sur un corps est une variété algébrique de dimension 1 sur , séparée pour éviter des pathologies.
