Espace de modulesEn mathématiques, un espace de modules est un espace paramétrant les diverses classes d'objets sous une relation d'équivalence ; l'intérêt est de pouvoir alors munir naturellement ces espaces de classes d'une structure supplémentaire. L'archétype de cette situation est la classification des courbes elliptiques par les points d'une courbe modulaire. Autre exemple : en géométrie différentielle, l'espace de modules d'une variété est l'espace des paramètres définissant la géométrie modulo les difféomorphismes locaux et globaux.
Moduli of algebraic curvesIn algebraic geometry, a moduli space of (algebraic) curves is a geometric space (typically a scheme or an algebraic stack) whose points represent isomorphism classes of algebraic curves. It is thus a special case of a moduli space. Depending on the restrictions applied to the classes of algebraic curves considered, the corresponding moduli problem and the moduli space is different. One also distinguishes between fine and coarse moduli spaces for the same moduli problem.
Variété algébriqueUne variété algébrique est, de manière informelle, l'ensemble des racines communes d'un nombre fini de polynômes en plusieurs indéterminées. C'est l'objet d'étude de la géométrie algébrique. Les schémas sont des généralisations des variétés algébriques. Il y a deux points de vue (essentiellement équivalents) sur les variétés algébriques : elles peuvent être définies comme des schémas de type fini sur un corps (langage de Grothendieck), ou bien comme la restriction d'un tel schéma au sous-ensemble des points fermés.
Moduli schemeIn mathematics, a moduli scheme is a moduli space that exists in the developed by Alexander Grothendieck. Some important moduli problems of algebraic geometry can be satisfactorily solved by means of scheme theory alone, while others require some extension of the 'geometric object' concept (algebraic spaces, algebraic stacks of Michael Artin). Work of Grothendieck and David Mumford (see geometric invariant theory) opened up this area in the early 1960s.
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).
Morphism of algebraic varietiesIn 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.
Siegel modular varietyIn mathematics, a Siegel modular variety or Siegel moduli space is an algebraic variety that parametrizes certain types of abelian varieties of a fixed dimension. More precisely, Siegel modular varieties are the moduli spaces of principally polarized abelian varieties of a fixed dimension. They are named after Carl Ludwig Siegel, the 20th-century German number theorist who introduced the varieties in 1943. Siegel modular varieties are the most basic examples of Shimura varieties.
Complex algebraic varietyIn algebraic geometry, a complex algebraic variety is an algebraic variety (in the scheme sense or otherwise) over the field of complex numbers. Chow's theorem Chow's theorem states that a projective analytic variety; i.e., a closed analytic subvariety of the complex projective space is an algebraic variety; it is usually simply referred to as a projective variety. Not every complex analytic variety is algebraic, though.
Chow groupIn algebraic geometry, the Chow groups (named after Wei-Liang Chow by ) of an algebraic variety over any field are algebro-geometric analogs of the homology of a topological space. The elements of the Chow group are formed out of subvarieties (so-called algebraic cycles) in a similar way to how simplicial or cellular homology groups are formed out of subcomplexes. When the variety is smooth, the Chow groups can be interpreted as cohomology groups (compare Poincaré duality) and have a multiplication called the intersection product.
Singular point of an algebraic varietyIn the mathematical field of algebraic geometry, a singular point of an algebraic variety V is a point P that is 'special' (so, singular), in the geometric sense that at this point the tangent space at the variety may not be regularly defined. In case of varieties defined over the reals, this notion generalizes the notion of local non-flatness. A point of an algebraic variety which is not singular is said to be regular. An algebraic variety which has no singular point is said to be non-singular or smooth.
