Corps de nombres
En mathématiques, un corps de nombres algébriques (ou simplement corps de nombres) est une extension finie K du corps Q des nombres rationnels. En particulier, c'est une extension algébrique : tous les éléments de K sont des nombres algébriques, dont le degré divise le degré de l'extension. C'est aussi une extension séparable car Q est de caractéristique nulle donc parfait. Tout sous-corps de C engendré par un nombre fini de nombres algébriques est un corps de nombres.
Degree of a field extension
In mathematics, more specifically field theory, the degree of a field extension is a rough measure of the "size" of the field extension. The concept plays an important role in many parts of mathematics, including algebra and number theory — indeed in any area where fields appear prominently. Suppose that E/F is a field extension. Then E may be considered as a vector space over F (the field of scalars). The dimension of this vector space is called the degree of the field extension, and it is denoted by [E:F].
Glossary of arithmetic and diophantine geometry
This is a glossary of arithmetic and diophantine geometry in mathematics, areas growing out of the traditional study of Diophantine equations to encompass large parts of number theory and algebraic geometry. Much of the theory is in the form of proposed conjectures, which can be related at various levels of generality. Diophantine geometry in general is the study of algebraic varieties V over fields K that are finitely generated over their prime fields—including as of special interest number fields and finite fields—and over local fields.
Algèbre générale
L'algèbre générale, ou algèbre abstraite, est la branche des mathématiques qui porte principalement sur l'étude des structures algébriques et de leurs relations. L'appellation algèbre générale s'oppose à celle d'algèbre élémentaire ; cette dernière enseigne le calcul algébrique, c'est-à-dire les règles de manipulation des formules et des expressions algébriques. Historiquement, les structures algébriques sont apparues dans différents domaines des mathématiques, et n'y ont pas été étudiées séparément.
Function field of an algebraic variety
In algebraic geometry, the function field of an algebraic variety V consists of objects which are interpreted as rational functions on V. In classical algebraic geometry they are ratios of polynomials; in complex algebraic geometry these are meromorphic functions and their higher-dimensional analogues; in modern algebraic geometry they are elements of some quotient ring's field of fractions. In complex algebraic geometry the objects of study are complex analytic varieties, on which we have a local notion of complex analysis, through which we may define meromorphic functions.
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.
Transcendental extension
In mathematics, a transcendental extension is a field extension such that there exists an element in the field that is transcendental over the field ; that is, an element that is not a root of any univariate polynomial with coefficients in . In other words, a transcendental extension is a field extension that is not algebraic. For example, are both transcendental extensions of A transcendence basis of a field extension (or a transcendence basis of over ) is a maximal algebraically independent subset of over Transcendence bases share many properties with bases of vector spaces.
Morphism of algebraic varieties
In algebraic geometry, a morphism between algebraic varieties is a function between the varieties that is given locally by polynomials. It is also called a regular map. A morphism from an algebraic variety to the affine line is also called a regular function. A regular map whose inverse is also regular is called biregular, and the biregular maps are the isomorphisms of algebraic varieties.
Corps global
En mathématiques, un corps global est un corps d'un des types suivants : un corps de nombres, c'est-à-dire une extension finie de Q un corps de fonctions d'une courbe algébrique sur un corps fini, c'est-à-dire une extension finie du corps k(t) des fractions rationnelles à une variable à coefficients dans un corps fini k (de façon équivalente, c'est un corps de type fini et de degré de transcendance 1 sur un corps fini). Emil Artin et George Whaples ont donné une caractérisation axiomatique de ces corps via la théorie des valuations.
Courbe elliptique
En mathématiques, une courbe elliptique est un cas particulier de courbe algébrique, munie entre autres propriétés d'une addition géométrique sur ses points. Les courbes elliptiques ont de nombreuses applications dans des domaines très différents des mathématiques : elles interviennent ainsi en mécanique classique dans la description du mouvement des toupies, en théorie des nombres dans la démonstration du dernier théorème de Fermat, en cryptologie dans le problème de la factorisation des entiers ou pour fabriquer des codes performants.
