Algebra homomorphismIn mathematics, an algebra homomorphism is a homomorphism between two algebras. More precisely, if A and B are algebras over a field (or a ring) K, it is a function such that, for all k in K and x, y in A, one has The first two conditions say that F is a K-linear map, and the last condition says that F preserves the algebra multiplication. So, if the algebras are associative, F is a rng homomorphism, and, if the algebras are rings and F preserves the identity, it is a ring homomorphism.
Opposite categoryIn , a branch of mathematics, the opposite category or dual category Cop of a given C is formed by reversing the morphisms, i.e. interchanging the source and target of each morphism. Doing the reversal twice yields the original category, so the opposite of an opposite category is the original category itself. In symbols, . An example comes from reversing the direction of inequalities in a partial order. So if X is a set and ≤ a partial order relation, we can define a new partial order relation ≤op by x ≤op y if and only if y ≤ x.
Spectral spaceIn mathematics, a spectral space is a topological space that is homeomorphic to the spectrum of a commutative ring. It is sometimes also called a coherent space because of the connection to coherent topos. Let X be a topological space and let K(X) be the set of all compact open subsets of X. Then X is said to be spectral if it satisfies all of the following conditions: X is compact and T0. K(X) is a basis of open subsets of X. K(X) is closed under finite intersections. X is sober, i.e.
Morphism of schemesIn algebraic geometry, a morphism of schemes generalizes a morphism of algebraic varieties just as a scheme generalizes an algebraic variety. It is, by definition, a morphism in the category of schemes. A morphism of algebraic stacks generalizes a morphism of schemes. By definition, a morphism of schemes is just a morphism of locally ringed spaces. A scheme, by definition, has open affine charts and thus a morphism of schemes can also be described in terms of such charts (compare the definition of morphism of varieties).
Théorème des facteurs invariantsEn mathématiques, le théorème des facteurs invariants porte sur les modules de type fini sur les anneaux principaux. Les facteurs invariants non inversibles sont des obstructions à l'inversibilité des matrices qui n'apparaissent pas dans la théorie des espaces vectoriels. Leur calcul a de nombreuses applications : par exemple trouver la classe d'isomorphie d'un groupe abélien de type fini à partir d'une présentation de celui-ci. Dans un cadre précis, le théorème des facteurs invariants se particularise en théorèmes de réduction d'endomorphisme.
Specialization (pre)orderIn the branch of mathematics known as topology, the specialization (or canonical) preorder is a natural preorder on the set of the points of a topological space. For most spaces that are considered in practice, namely for all those that satisfy the T0 separation axiom, this preorder is even a partial order (called the specialization order). On the other hand, for T1 spaces the order becomes trivial and is of little interest. The specialization order is often considered in applications in computer science, where T0 spaces occur in denotational semantics.
