Point rationnelEn théorie des nombres et géométrie algébrique, les points rationnels d'une variété algébrique définie sur un corps sont, lorsque X est définie par un système d'équations polynomiales, les solutions dans k de ce système. Soit une variété algébrique définie sur un corps . Un point est appelé un point rationnel si le corps résiduel de X en x est égal à . Cela revient à dire que les coordonnées du point dans une carte locale affine appartiennent toutes à .
Variété kählérienneEn mathématiques, une variété kählérienne ou variété de Kähler est une variété différentielle équipée d'une structure unitaire satisfaisant une condition d'intégrabilité. C'est en particulier une variété riemannienne, une variété symplectique et une variété complexe, ces trois structures étant mutuellement compatibles. Les variétés kählériennes sont un objet d'étude naturel en géométrie différentielle complexe. Elles doivent leur nom au mathématicien Erich Kähler. Plusieurs définitions équivalentes existent.
Hodge structureIn mathematics, a Hodge structure, named after W. V. D. Hodge, is an algebraic structure at the level of linear algebra, similar to the one that Hodge theory gives to the cohomology groups of a smooth and compact Kähler manifold. Hodge structures have been generalized for all complex varieties (even if they are singular and non-complete) in the form of mixed Hodge structures, defined by Pierre Deligne (1970). A variation of Hodge structure is a family of Hodge structures parameterized by a manifold, first studied by Phillip Griffiths (1968).
Homological mirror symmetryHomological mirror symmetry is a mathematical conjecture made by Maxim Kontsevich. It seeks a systematic mathematical explanation for a phenomenon called mirror symmetry first observed by physicists studying string theory. In an address to the 1994 International Congress of Mathematicians in Zürich, speculated that mirror symmetry for a pair of Calabi–Yau manifolds X and Y could be explained as an equivalence of a constructed from the algebraic geometry of X (the of coherent sheaves on X) and another triangulated category constructed from the symplectic geometry of Y (the derived ).
Dualité de SerreEn géométrie algébrique, la dualité de Serre est une dualité pour la cohomologie cohérente de variétés algébriques, démontrée par Jean-Pierre Serre. La version originale s'applique aux fibrés vectoriels sur une variété projective lisse, mais Alexander Grothendieck la généralise largement. Sur une variété de dimension n, le théorème énonce l'isomorphisme d'un groupe de cohomologie avec l'espace dual d'un autre, le . La dualité de Serre est l'analogue pour la cohomologie cohérente de la dualité de Poincaré en topologie.
Hyperkähler manifoldIn differential geometry, a hyperkähler manifold is a Riemannian manifold endowed with three integrable almost complex structures that are Kähler with respect to the Riemannian metric and satisfy the quaternionic relations . In particular, it is a hypercomplex manifold. All hyperkähler manifolds are Ricci-flat and are thus Calabi–Yau manifolds. Hyperkähler manifolds were defined by Eugenio Calabi in 1979. Equivalently, a hyperkähler manifold is a Riemannian manifold of dimension whose holonomy group is contained in the compact symplectic group Sp(n).
Ricci-flat manifoldIn the mathematical field of differential geometry, Ricci-flatness is a condition on the curvature of a (pseudo-)Riemannian manifold. Ricci-flat manifolds are a special kind of Einstein manifold. In theoretical physics, Ricci-flat Lorentzian manifolds are of fundamental interest, as they are the solutions of Einstein's field equations in vacuum with vanishing cosmological constant. In Lorentzian geometry, a number of Ricci-flat metrics are known from works of Karl Schwarzschild, Roy Kerr, and Yvonne Choquet-Bruhat.
Period mappingIn mathematics, in the field of algebraic geometry, the period mapping relates families of Kähler manifolds to families of Hodge structures. Ehresmann's theorem Let f : X → B be a holomorphic submersive morphism. For a point b of B, we denote the fiber of f over b by Xb. Fix a point 0 in B. Ehresmann's theorem guarantees that there is a small open neighborhood U around 0 in which f becomes a fiber bundle. That is, f−1(U) is diffeomorphic to X0 × U. In particular, the composite map is a diffeomorphism.
Elliptic surfaceIn mathematics, an elliptic surface is a surface that has an elliptic fibration, in other words a proper morphism with connected fibers to an algebraic curve such that almost all fibers are smooth curves of genus 1. (Over an algebraically closed field such as the complex numbers, these fibers are elliptic curves, perhaps without a chosen origin.) This is equivalent to the generic fiber being a smooth curve of genus one. This follows from proper base change.
Linear system of divisorsIn algebraic geometry, a linear system of divisors is an algebraic generalization of the geometric notion of a family of curves; the dimension of the linear system corresponds to the number of parameters of the family. These arose first in the form of a linear system of algebraic curves in the projective plane. It assumed a more general form, through gradual generalisation, so that one could speak of linear equivalence of divisors D on a general scheme or even a ringed space (X, OX).
