This lecture delves into the construction of the field of rational functions on a variety, defining it as pairs of subsets and regular functions modulo a recurrence relation. The instructor explains the equivalence relation, the well-defined operations, and the field structure. The lecture also explores the connection with local rings, the dimension of algebraic varieties, and the implications for affine varieties.
