Schéma (géométrie algébrique)En mathématiques, les schémas sont les objets de base de la géométrie algébrique, généralisant la notion de variété algébrique de plusieurs façons, telles que la prise en compte des multiplicités, l'unicité des points génériques et le fait d'autoriser des équations à coefficients dans un anneau commutatif quelconque.
Arithmétique d'intervallesEn mathématiques et en informatique, l'arithmétique des intervalles est une méthode de calcul consistant à manipuler des intervalles, par opposition à des nombres (par exemple entiers ou flottants), dans le but d'obtenir des résultats plus rigoureux. Cette approche permet de borner les erreurs d'arrondi ou de méthode et ainsi de développer des méthodes numériques qui fournissent des résultats fiables. L'arithmétique des intervalles est une branche de l'arithmétique des ordinateurs.
Group schemeIn mathematics, a group scheme is a type of object from algebraic geometry equipped with a composition law. Group schemes arise naturally as symmetries of schemes, and they generalize algebraic groups, in the sense that all algebraic groups have group scheme structure, but group schemes are not necessarily connected, smooth, or defined over a field. This extra generality allows one to study richer infinitesimal structures, and this can help one to understand and answer questions of arithmetic significance.
Generic flatnessIn algebraic geometry and commutative algebra, the theorems of generic flatness and generic freeness state that under certain hypotheses, a sheaf of modules on a scheme is flat or free. They are due to Alexander Grothendieck. Generic flatness states that if Y is an integral locally noetherian scheme, u : X → Y is a finite type morphism of schemes, and F is a coherent OX-module, then there is a non-empty open subset U of Y such that the restriction of F to u−1(U) is flat over U. Because Y is integral, U is a dense open subset of Y.
Generic pointIn algebraic geometry, a generic point P of an algebraic variety X is, roughly speaking, a point at which all generic properties are true, a generic property being a property which is true for almost every point. In classical algebraic geometry, a generic point of an affine or projective algebraic variety of dimension d is a point such that the field generated by its coordinates has transcendence degree d over the field generated by the coefficients of the equations of the variety.
Generic propertyIn mathematics, properties that hold for "typical" examples are called generic properties. For instance, a generic property of a class of functions is one that is true of "almost all" of those functions, as in the statements, "A generic polynomial does not have a root at zero," or "A generic square matrix is invertible." As another example, a generic property of a space is a property that holds at "almost all" points of the space, as in the statement, "If f : M → N is a smooth function between smooth manifolds, then a generic point of N is not a critical value of f.
Hilbert schemeIn algebraic geometry, a branch of mathematics, a Hilbert scheme is a scheme that is the parameter space for the closed subschemes of some projective space (or a more general projective scheme), refining the Chow variety. The Hilbert scheme is a disjoint union of projective subschemes corresponding to Hilbert polynomials. The basic theory of Hilbert schemes was developed by . Hironaka's example shows that non-projective varieties need not have Hilbert schemes.
Combinaison linéaireEn mathématiques, une combinaison linéaire est une expression construite à partir d'un ensemble de termes en multipliant chaque terme par une constante et en ajoutant le résultat. Par exemple, une combinaison linéaire de x et y serait une expression de la forme ax + by, où a et b sont des constantes. Le concept de combinaison linéaire est central en algèbre linéaire et dans des domaines connexes des mathématiques. La majeure partie de cet article traite des combinaisons linéaires dans le contexte d'espace vectoriel sur un corps commutatif, et indique quelques généralisations à la fin de l'article.
Smooth schemeIn algebraic geometry, a smooth scheme over a field is a scheme which is well approximated by affine space near any point. Smoothness is one way of making precise the notion of a scheme with no singular points. A special case is the notion of a smooth variety over a field. Smooth schemes play the role in algebraic geometry of manifolds in topology. First, let X be an affine scheme of finite type over a field k. Equivalently, X has a closed immersion into affine space An over k for some natural number n.
Constraint satisfactionIn artificial intelligence and operations research, constraint satisfaction is the process of finding a solution through a set of constraints that impose conditions that the variables must satisfy. A solution is therefore a set of values for the variables that satisfies all constraints—that is, a point in the feasible region. The techniques used in constraint satisfaction depend on the kind of constraints being considered.
