\subsection{Sheaves}
|
|
|
|
\begin{definition}[Sheaf]
|
|
Let $X$ be any topological space.
|
|
|
|
A \vocab{presheaf} $\mathcal{G}$ of sets
|
|
(or rings, (abelian) groups) on $X$
|
|
associates a set (or rings, or (abelian) group) $\mathcal{G}(U)$ to
|
|
every open subset $U$ of $X$, and a map (or ring or group homomorphism)
|
|
$\mathcal{G}(U)
|
|
\xrightarrow{r_{U,V}} \mathcal{G}(V)$ to every inclusion $V
|
|
\subseteq U$ of
|
|
open subsets of $X$ such that $r_{U,W} =
|
|
r_{V,W} r_{U,V}$ for inclusions
|
|
$U
|
|
\subseteq V \subseteq W$ of open subsets.
|
|
|
|
Elements of $\mathcal{G}(U)$ are often called \vocab{sections}
|
|
of
|
|
$\mathcal{G}$ on $U$ or \vocab{global sections} when $U = X$.
|
|
|
|
Let $U \subseteq X$ be open and $U = \bigcup_{i \in I} U_i$ an open
|
|
covering.
|
|
A family $(f_i)_{i \in I} \in
|
|
\prod_{i \in I} \mathcal{G}(U_i)$ is called
|
|
\vocab[Sections!
|
|
compatible]{compatible} if $r_{U_i, U_i \cap U_j}(f_i) =
|
|
r_{U_j, U_i \cap U_j}(f_j)$ for all $i,j \in I$.
|
|
|
|
Consider the map
|
|
\begin{align*}
|
|
\phi_{U, (U_i)_{i \in I}}: \mathcal{G}(U)
|
|
& \longrightarrow \{(f_i)_{i \in I} \in \prod_{i \in I} \mathcal{G}(U_i) |
|
|
r_{U_i, U_i \cap U_j}(f_i) = r_{U_j, U_i \cap U_j}(f_j) \text{ for } i,j \in I \}\\
|
|
f & \longmapsto (r_{U, U_i}( f))_{i \in I}
|
|
\end{align*}
|
|
|
|
A presheaf is called \vocab[Presheaf!separated]{separated}
|
|
if $\phi_{U, (U_i)_{i \in I}}$ is injective for all such $U$ and
|
|
$(U_i)_{i \in I}$.\footnote{This also called ``locality''.}
|
|
It satisfies \vocab{gluing} if $\phi_{U, (U_i)_{i \in I}}$ is surjective.
|
|
|
|
A presheaf is called a \vocab{sheaf} if it is separated and
|
|
satisfies gluing.
|
|
|
|
The bijectivity of the $\phi_{U, (U_i)_{i \in I}}$ is called the
|
|
\vocab{sheaf axiom}.
|
|
\end{definition}
|
|
\begin{trivial}+
|
|
A presheaf is a contravariant functor $\mathcal{G}:\mathcal{O}(X) \to C$
|
|
where $\mathcal{O}(X)$ denotes the category of open subsets of $X$
|
|
with inclusions as morphisms
|
|
and $C$ is the category of sets, rings or (abelian) groups.
|
|
\end{trivial}
|
|
\begin{definition}
|
|
A subsheaf $\mathcal{G}'$ is defined by subsets
|
|
(resp.~subrings or subgroups) $\mathcal{G}'(U) \subseteq \mathcal{G}(U)$
|
|
for all open $U \subseteq X$ such that the sheaf axioms still hold.
|
|
\end{definition}
|
|
\begin{remark}
|
|
If $\mathcal{G}$ is a sheaf on $X$ and $\Omega \subseteq X$ open,
|
|
then
|
|
$\mathcal{G}\defon{\Omega}(U) \coloneqq \mathcal{G}(U)$
|
|
for open $U \subseteq \Omega$
|
|
and $r_{U,V}^{(\mathcal{G}\defon{\Omega})}(f) \coloneqq r_{U,V}^{(\mathcal{G})}(f)$
|
|
is a sheaf of the same kind as $\mathcal{G}$ on $\Omega$.
|
|
\end{remark}
|
|
\begin{remark}
|
|
The notion of restriction of a sheaf to a closed subset, or of preimages under
|
|
general continuous maps, can be defined but this is a bit harder.
|
|
\end{remark}
|
|
\begin{notation}
|
|
It is often convenient to write $f \defon{V}$ instead of $r_{U,V}(f)$.
|
|
\end{notation}
|
|
\begin{remark}
|
|
Applying the \vocab{sheaf axiom} to the empty covering of $U = \emptyset$,
|
|
one finds that $\mathcal{G}(\emptyset) = \{0\} $.
|
|
\end{remark}
|
|
|
|
|

|
\subsubsection{Examples of sheaves}
|
|
\begin{example}
|
|
Let $G$ be a set and let $\mathfrak{G}(U)$ be the set of arbitrary maps
|
|
$U \xrightarrow{f} G$.
|
|
We put $r_{U,V}(f) = f\defon{V}$.
|
|
It is easy to see that this defines a sheaf.
|
|
If $\cdot $ is a group operation on $G$,
|
|
then $(f\cdot g)(x) \coloneqq f(x)\cdot g(x)$ defines the structure
|
|
of a sheaf of group on $\mathfrak{G}$.
|
|
Similarly, a ring structure on $G$ can be used to define the structure
|
|
of a sheaf of rings on $\mathfrak{G}$.
|
|
\end{example}
|
|
\begin{example}
|
|
If in the previous example $G$ carries a topology
|
|
and $\mathcal{G}(U) \subseteq \mathfrak{G}(U)$ is the subset
|
|
(subring, subgroup) of continuous functions $U \xrightarrow{f} G$,
|
|
then $\mathcal{G}$ is a subsheaf of $\mathfrak{G}$,
|
|
called the sheaf of continuous $G$-valued functions on
|
|
(open subsets of) $X$.
|
|
\end{example}
|
|
|
|
\begin{example}
|
|
If $X = \R^n$, $\mathbb{K} \in \{\R, \C\}$
|
|
and $\mathcal{O}(U)$ is the sheaf of
|
|
$\mathbb{K}$-valued $C^{\infty}$-functions on $U$,
|
|
then $\mathcal{O}$ is a subsheaf of the sheaf (of rings)
|
|
of $\mathbb{K}$-valued continuous functions on $X$.
|
|
\end{example}
|
|
\begin{example}
|
|
If $X = \C^n$ and $\mathcal{O}(U)$ the set of holomorphic functions on $X$,
|
|
then $\mathcal{O}$ is a subsheaf of the sheaf of
|
|
$\C$-valued $C^{\infty}$-functions on $X$.
|
|
\end{example}
|
|
\subsubsection{The structure sheaf on a closed subset of $\mathfrak{k}^n$}
|
|
|
|
Let $X \subseteq \mathfrak{k}^n$ be open.
|
|
Let $R = \mathfrak{k}[X_1,\ldots,X_n]$.
|
|
\begin{definition}
|
|
\label{structuresheafkn}
|
|
For open subsets $U \subseteq X$, let $\mathcal{O}_X(U)$ be the set of
|
|
functions $U \xrightarrow{\phi} \mathfrak{k}$
|
|
such that every $x \in U$ has a neighbourhood $V$
|
|
such that there are $f,g \in R$
|
|
such that for $y \in V$ we have $g(y) \neq 0$
|
|
and $\phi(y) = \frac{f(y)}{g(y)}$.
|
|
\end{definition}
|
|
|
|
\begin{remark}
|
|
\label{structuresheafcontinuous}
|
|
$\mathcal{O}_X$ is a subsheaf (of rings) of the sheaf of
|
|
$\mathfrak{k}$-valued functions on $X$.
|
|
The elements of $\mathcal{O}_X(U)$ are continuous:
|
|
Let $M \subseteq \mathfrak{k}$ be closed.
|
|
We must show the closedness of $N \coloneqq \phi^{-1}(M)$ in $U$.
|
|
For $M = \mathfrak{k}$ this is trivial.
|
|
Otherwise $M$ is finite and we may assume $M = \{t\} $
|
|
for some $t \in \mathfrak{k}$.
|
|
For $x \in U$, there are open $V_x \subseteq U$ and $f_x, g_x \in R$
|
|
such that $\phi = \frac{f_x}{g_x}$ on $V_x$.
|
|
Then $N \cap V_x = V(f_x - t\cdot g_x) \cap V_x)$ is closed in $V_x$.
|
|
As the $V_x$ cover $U$ and $U$ is quasi-compact, $N$ is closed in $U$.
|
|
\end{remark}
|
|
|
|
\begin{proposition}
|
|
\label{structuresheafri}
|
|
Let $X = V(I)$ where $I = \sqrt{I} \subseteq R$ is an ideal.
|
|
Let $A = R / I$.
|
|
Then
|
|
\begin{align*}
|
|
\phi: A & \longrightarrow \mathcal{O}_X(X) \\
|
|
f \mod I & \longmapsto f\defon{X}
|
|
\end{align*}
|
|
is an isomorphism.
|
|
\end{proposition}
|
|
|
|
\begin{proof}
|
|
It is easy to see that the map $A \to \mathcal{O}_X(X)$ is
|
|
well-defined and a ring homomorphism.
|
|
Its injectivity follows from the Nullstellensatz and $I = \sqrt{I}$
|
|
(\ref{hns3}).
|
|
|
|
Let $\phi \in \mathcal{O}_X(X)$.
|
|
For $x \in X$, there are an open subset $U_x \subseteq X$
|
|
and $f_x, g_x \in R$ such that $\phi = \frac{f_x}{g_x}$ on $U_x$.
|
|
\begin{claim}
|
|
Without loss of generality loss of generality we can assume
|
|
$U_x = X \setminus V(g_x)$.
|
|
\end{claim}
|
|
\begin{subproof}
|
|
The closed subsets $(X \setminus U_x) \subseteq \mathfrak{k}^n$
|
|
has the form $X\setminus U_x = V(J_x)$
|
|
for some ideal $J_x \subseteq R$.
|
|
As $x \not\in X \setminus V_x$
|
|
there is $h_x \in J_x$ with $h_x(x) \neq 0$.
|
|
Replacing $U_x$ by $X \setminus V(h_x)$, $f_x$ by $f_xh_x$
|
|
and $g_x$ by $g_xh_x$, we may assume $U_x = X \setminus V(g_x)$.
|
|
\end{subproof}
|
|
\begin{claim}
|
|
Without loss of generality loss of generality we can assume
|
|
$V(g_x) \subseteq V(f_x)$.
|
|
\end{claim}
|
|
\begin{subproof}
|
|
Replace $f_x$ by $f_xg_x$ and $g_x$ by $g_x^2$.
|
|
\end{subproof}
|
|
As $X$ is quasi-compact, there are finitely many points
|
|
$(x_i)_{i=1}^m$ such that the $U_{x_i}$ cover $X$.
|
|
Let $U_i \coloneqq U_{x_i}, f_i \coloneqq f_{x_i}, g_i \coloneqq g_{x_i}$.
|
|
|
|
As the $U_i = X \setminus V(g_i)$ cover $X$,
|
|
$V(I) \cap \bigcap_{i=1}^m V(g_i) = X \cap \bigcap_{i=1}^m V(g_i) = \emptyset$.
|
|
By the Nullstellensatz (\ref{hns1}) the ideal of $R$ generated by
|
|
$I$ and the $a_i$ equals $R$.
|
|
There are thus $n \ge m \in \N$
|
|
and elements $(g_i)_{i = m+1}^n$ of $I$
|
|
and $(a_i)_{i=1}^n \in R^n$
|
|
such that $1 = \sum_{i=1}^{n} a_ig_i$.
|
|
Let for $i > m$ $f_i \coloneqq 0$,
|
|
$F = \sum_{i=1}^{n} a_if_i = \sum_{i=1}^{m} a_if_i \in R$.
|
|
|
|
\begin{claim}
|
|
For all $x \in X $ ~ $f_i(x) = \phi(x) g_i(x)$.
|
|
\end{claim}
|
|
\begin{subproof}
|
|
If $x \in V_i$ this follows by our choice of $f_i$ and $g_i$.
|
|
If $x \in X \setminus V_i$ or $i > m$ both sides are zero.
|
|
\end{subproof}
|
|
It follows that
|
|
\[
|
|
\phi(x) = \phi(x) \cdot 1 =
|
|
\phi(x) \cdot \sum_{i=1}^{n}
|
|
a_i(x) g_i(x) = \sum_{i=1}^{n} a_i(x) f_i(x) = F(x)
|
|
\]
|
|
Hence $\phi = F\defon{X}$.
|
|
\end{proof}
|
|
\subsubsection{The structure sheaf on closed subsets of $\mathbb{P}^n$}
|
|
Let $X \subseteq \mathbb{P}^n$ be closed
|
|
and $R_\bullet = \mathfrak{k}[X_0,\ldots,X_n]$ with its usual grading.
|
|
|
|
\begin{definition}
|
|
\label{structuresheafpn}
|
|
For open $U \subseteq X$, let $\mathcal{O}_X(U)$ be the set of functions
|
|
$U \xrightarrow{\phi} \mathfrak{k}$
|
|
such that for every $x \in U$,
|
|
there are an open subset $W \subseteq U$,
|
|
a natural number $d$
|
|
and $f,g \in R_d$ such that
|
|
$W \cap \Vp(g) = \emptyset$ and $\phi(y) = \frac{f(y_0,\ldots,y_n)}{g(y_0,\ldots,y_n)}$
|
|
for $y = [y_0,\ldots,y_n] \in W$.
|
|
\end{definition}
|
|
|
|
\begin{remark}
|
|
This is a subsheaf of rings of the sheaf of $\mathfrak{k}$-valued functions
|
|
on $X$.
|
|
Under the identification $\mathbb{A}^n =\mathfrak{k}^n$
|
|
with $\mathbb{P}^n \setminus \Vp(X_0)$,
|
|
one has $\mathcal{O}_X \defon{X \setminus \Vp(X_0)} = \mathcal{O}_{X \cap \mathbb{A}^n}$
|
|
as subsheaves of the sheaf of $\mathfrak{k}$-valued functions,
|
|
where the second sheaf is a sheaf on a closed subset of $\mathfrak{k}^n$:
|
|
|
|
Indeed, if $W$ is as in the definition then
|
|
$\phi([1,y_1,\ldots,y_n]) = \frac{f(1,y_1,\ldots,y_n)}{g(1,y_1,\ldots,y_n)}$
|
|
for $[1,y_1,\ldots,y_n] \in W$.
|
|
Conversely if $\phi([1,y_1,\ldots,y_n]) = \frac{f(y_1,\ldots,y_n)}{g(y_1,\ldots,y_n)}$
|
|
on an open subset $W $ of $X \cap \mathbb{A}^n$
|
|
then $\phi([y_0,\ldots,y_n]) = \frac{F(y_0,\ldots,y_n)}{G(y_0,\ldots,y_n)}$
|
|
on $W$ where $F(X_0,\ldots,X_n) \coloneqq X_0^d f(\frac{X_1}{X_0}, \ldots, \frac{X_n}{X_0})$
|
|
and $G(X_0,\ldots,X_n) = X_0^d g(\frac{X_1}{X_0},\ldots, \frac{X_n}{X_0})$
|
|
with a sufficiently large $d \in \N$.
|
|
\end{remark}
|
|
\begin{remark}
|
|
It follows from the previous remark and the similar result in the affine case
|
|
that the elements of $\mathcal{O}_X(U)$ are continuous on $U \setminus V(X_0)$.
|
|
Since the situation is symmetric in the homogeneous coordinates,
|
|
they are continuous on all of $U$.
|
|
\end{remark}
|
|
The following is somewhat harder than in the affine case:
|
|
\begin{proposition}
|
|
If $X$ is connected (e.g. irreducible), then the elements of
|
|
$\mathcal{O}_X\left( X \right) $ are constant functions on $X$.
|
|
\end{proposition}

\subsection{The notion of a category}
|
|
\begin{definition}
|
|
A \vocab{category} $\mathcal{A}$ consists of:
|
|
\begin{itemize}
|
|
\item
|
|
A class $\Ob \mathcal{A}$ of
|
|
\vocab[Objects]{objects of $\mathcal{A}$}.
|
|
\item
|
|
For two arbitrary objects $A, B \in \Ob \mathcal{A}$,
|
|
a \textbf{set} $\Hom_\mathcal{A}(A,B)$ of
|
|
\vocab[Morphism]{morphisms for $A$ to $B$ in $\mathcal{A}$}.
|
|
\item
|
|
A map $\Hom_\mathcal{A}(B,C) \times \Hom_\mathcal{A}(A,B) \xrightarrow{\circ} \Hom_\mathcal{A}(A,C)$,
|
|
the composition of morphisms,
|
|
for arbitrary triples $(A,B,C)$ of objects of $\mathcal{A}$.
|
|
\end{itemize}
|
|
The following conditions must be satisfied:
|
|
\begin{enumerate}[A]
|
|
\item
|
|
For morphisms
|
|
$A \xrightarrow{f} B\xrightarrow{g} C \xrightarrow{h} D$,
|
|
we have $h \circ (g \circ f) = (h \circ g) \circ f$.
|
|
\item
|
|
For every $A \in \Ob(\mathcal{A})$,
|
|
there is an $\Id_A \in \Hom_{\mathcal{A}}(A,A)$
|
|
such that $\Id_A \circ f = f$
|
|
(reps. $g \circ \Id_A = g$)
|
|
for arbitrary morphisms $B \xrightarrow{f} A$
|
|
(reps. $A \xrightarrow{g} C$).
|
|
\end{enumerate}
|
|
|
|
A morphism $X \xrightarrow{f} Y$ is called an
|
|
\vocab[Isomorphism]{isomorphism (in $\mathcal{A} $)}
|
|
if there is a morphism $Y \xrightarrow{g} X$
|
|
(called the \vocab[Inverse morphism]{inverse $f^{-1}$ of $f$})
|
|
such that $g \circ f = \Id_X$ and $f \circ g = \Id_Y$.
|
|
\end{definition}
|
|
\begin{remark}
|
|
\begin{itemize}
|
|
\item
|
|
The distinction between classes and sets is important here.
|
|
\item
|
|
We will usually omit the composition sign $\circ$.
|
|
\item
|
|
It is easy to see that $\Id_A$ is uniquely determined by
|
|
the above condition $B$,
|
|
and that the inverse $f^{-1}$ of an isomorphism
|
|
$f$ is uniquely determined.
|
|
\end{itemize}
|
|
\end{remark}
|
|
\subsubsection{Examples of categories}
|
|
\begin{example}\,
|
|
\begin{itemize}
|
|
\item
|
|
The category of sets.
|
|
\item
|
|
The category of groups.
|
|
\item
|
|
The category of rings.
|
|
\item
|
|
If $R$ is a ring,
|
|
the category of $R$-modules and the category $\Alg_R$ of
|
|
$R$-algebras
|
|
\item
|
|
The category of topological spaces.
|
|
\item
|
|
The category $\Var_\mathfrak{k}$ of varieties over
|
|
$\mathfrak{k}$ (see \ref{defvariety}).
|
|
\item
|
|
If $\mathcal{A}$ is a category,
|
|
then the \vocab{opposite category} or \vocab{dual category}
|
|
is defined by $\Ob(\mathcal{A}\op) = \Ob(\mathcal{A})$
|
|
and $\Hom_{\mathcal{A}\op}(X,Y) = \Hom_\mathcal{A}(Y,X)$.
|
|
\end{itemize}
|
|
In most of these cases, isomorphisms in the category were just called
|
|
`isomorphism'.
|
|
The isomorphisms in the category of topological spaces are the homeomophisms.
|
|
\end{example}
|
|
\subsubsection{Subcategories}
|
|
\begin{definition}[Subcategories]
|
|
A \vocab{subcategory} of $\mathcal{A}$ is a category $\mathcal{B}$
|
|
such that $\Ob(\mathcal{B}) \subseteq \Ob(\mathcal{A})$,
|
|
such that $\Hom_\mathcal{B}(X,Y) \subseteq \Hom_\mathcal{A}(X,Y)$
|
|
for objects $X$ and $Y$ of $\mathcal{B}$,
|
|
such that for every object $X \in \Ob(\mathcal{B})$,
|
|
the identity $\Id_X$ of $X$ is the same in
|
|
$\mathcal{B}$ as in $\mathcal{A}$,
|
|
and such that for composable morphisms in $\mathcal{B}$,
|
|
their compositions in $\mathcal{A}$ and $\mathcal{B}$ coincide.
|
|
We call $\mathcal{B}$ a \vocab{full subcategory} of $\mathcal{A}$ if in
|
|
addition $\Hom_\mathcal{B}(X,Y) = \Hom_\mathcal{A}(X,Y)$ for
|
|
arbitrary $X,Y \in \Ob(\mathcal{B})$.
|
|
\end{definition}
|
|
\begin{example}\,
|
|
\begin{itemize}
|
|
\item
|
|
The category of abelian groups is a full subcategory of the
|
|
category of groups.
|
|
It can be identified with the category of $\Z$-modules.
|
|
\item
|
|
The category of finitely generated $R$-modules as a full
|
|
subcategory of the category of $R$-modules.
|
|
\item
|
|
The category of $R$-algebras of finite type as a full
|
|
subcategory of $\Alg_R$.
|
|
\item
|
|
The category of affine varieties over $\mathfrak{k}$ as a full
|
|
subcategory of the category of varieties over $\mathfrak{k}$.
|
|
\end{itemize}
|
|
\end{example}
|
|
|
|
\subsubsection{Functors and equivalences of categories}
|
|
\begin{definition}
|
|
A \vocab[Functor!covariant]{(covariant) functor}
|
|
(resp.~\vocab[Functor!contravariant]{contravariant functor})
|
|
between categories $\mathcal{A} \xrightarrow{F} \mathcal{B}$ is a map
|
|
$\Ob(\mathcal{A}) \xrightarrow{F} \Ob(\mathcal{B})$
|
|
with a family of maps
|
|
$\Hom_\mathcal{A}(X,Y) \xrightarrow{F} \Hom_\mathcal{B}(F(X),F(Y))$
|
|
(resp. $\Hom_\mathcal{A}(X,Y) \xrightarrow{F} \Hom_\mathcal{B}(F(Y),F(X))$
|
|
in the case of contravariant functors),
|
|
where $X$ and $Y$ are arbitrary objects of $\mathcal{A}$,
|
|
such that the following conditions hold:
|
|
\begin{itemize}
|
|
\item
|
|
$F(\Id_X) = \Id_{F(X)}$.
|
|
\item
|
|
For morphisms $X \xrightarrow{f} Y \xrightarrow{g} Z$
|
|
in $\mathcal{A}$,
|
|
we have $F(gf) = F(g)F(f)$
|

(resp.~$F(gf) = F(f) F(g)$).

\subsection{The category of varieties}
|
|
|
|
\begin{definition}[Algebraic variety]
|
|
\label{defvariety}
|
|
An \vocab{algebraic variety} or \vocab{prevariety} over $\mathfrak{k}$
|
|
is a pair $(X, \mathcal{O}_X)$,
|
|
where $X$ is a topological space
|
|
and $\mathcal{O}_X$ a subsheaf of the sheaf of $\mathfrak{k}$-valued
|
|
functions on $X$
|
|
such that for every $x \in X$,
|
|
there are a neighbourhood $U_x$ of $x$ in $X$,
|
|
an open subset $V_x$ of a closed subset $Y_x$ of $\mathfrak{k}^{n_x}$%
|
|
\footnote{By the result of \ref{affopensubtopbase},
|
|
it can be assumed that $V_x = Y_x$ without altering the definition.}
|
|
and a homeomorphism $V_x \xrightarrow{\iota_x} U_x$
|
|
such that for every open subset $V \subseteq U_x$
|
|
and every function $V\xrightarrow{f} \mathfrak{k}$, we have
|
|
$f \in \mathcal{O}_X(V) \iff \iota^{\ast}_x(f) \in \mathcal{O}_{Y_x}(\iota_x^{-1}(V))$.
|
|
|
|
In this, the \vocab{pull-back} $\iota_x^{\ast}(f)$ of $f$ is
|
|
defined by $(\iota_x^{\ast}(f))(\xi) \coloneqq f(\iota_x(\xi))$.
|
|
|
|
|
|
A morphism $(X, \mathcal{O}_X) \to (Y, \mathcal{O}_Y)$ of varieties is a
|
|
continuous map $X \xrightarrow{\phi} Y$ such that for all open
|
|
$U \subseteq Y$
|
|
and $f \in \mathcal{O}_Y(U)$,
|
|
$\phi^{\ast}(f) \in \mathcal{O}_X(\phi^{-1}(U))$.
|
|
An isomorphism is a morphism such that $\phi$ is bijective and
|
|
$\phi^{-1}$ also is a morphism of varieties.
|

\end{definition}

\begin{example}
|
|
\begin{itemize}
|
|
\item
|
|
If $(X, \mathcal{O}_X)$ is a variety and $U \subseteq X$ open,

then $(U, \mathcal{O}_X\defon{U})$ is a variety
|
|
(called an \vocab{open subvariety} of $X$),
|
|
and the embedding $U \to X$ is a morphism of varieties.
|
|
\item
|
|
If $X$ is a closed subset of $\mathfrak{k}^n$ or $\mathbb{P}^n$,
|
|
then $(X, \mathcal{O}_X)$ is a variety,
|
|
where $\mathcal{O}_X$ is the structure sheaf on $X$
|
|
(\ref{structuresheafkn}, reps. \ref{structuresheafpn}).
|
|
A variety is called \vocab[Variety!affine]{affine}
|
|
(resp.~\vocab[Variety!projective]{projective})
|
|
if it is isomorphic to a variety of this form,
|
|
with $X $ closed in $\mathfrak{k}^n$ (resp. $\mathbb{P}^n$).
|
|
A variety which is isomorphic to and open subvariety of $X$
|
|
is called \vocab[Variety!quasi-affine]{quasi-affine}
|
|
(resp.~\vocab[Variety!quasi-projective]{quasi-projective}).
|

\item
|

If $X = V(X^2 - Y^3) \subseteq \mathfrak{k}^2$
|
|
then $\mathfrak{k} \xrightarrow{t \mapsto (t^3,t^2)}

X$ is a morphism which is a homeomorphism of topological spaces

|
but not an isomorphism of varieties.

The composition of two morphisms $X \to Y \to Z$ of varieties

\subsubsection{The category of affine varieties}
|
|
\begin{lemma}
|
|
\label{localinverse}
|
|
Let $X$ be any $\mathfrak{k}$-variety and $U \subseteq X$ open.
|
|
\begin{enumerate}[i)]
|
|
\item
|
|
All elements of $\mathcal{O}_X(U)$ are continuous.
|
|
\item
|
|
If $U \subseteq X$ is open, $U \xrightarrow{\lambda} \mathfrak{k}$
|
|
any function and every $x \in U$ has a neighbourhood $V_x \subseteq U$
|
|
such that $\lambda \defon{V_x} \in \mathcal{O}_X(V_x)$,
|
|
then $\lambda \in \mathcal{O}_X(U)$.
|
|
\item
|
|
If $\vartheta \in \mathcal{O}_X(U)$ and $\vartheta(x) \neq 0$
|
|
for all $x \in U$,
|
|
then $\vartheta \in \mathcal{O}_X(U)^{\times }$.
|
|
\end{enumerate}
|
|
\end{lemma}
|
|
\begin{proof}
|
|
\begin{enumerate}[i)]
|
|
\item
|
|
The property is local on $U$,
|
|
hence it is sufficient to show it in the quasi-affine case.
|
|
This was done in \ref{structuresheafcontinuous}.
|
|
\item
|
|
For the second part,
|
|
let $\lambda_x \coloneqq \lambda \defon{V_x} $.
|
|
We have
|
|
$\lambda_x\defon{V_x \cap V_y}
|
|
= \lambda \defon{V_x \cap V_y}
|
|
= \lambda_y \defon{V_x \cap V_y} $.
|
|
The $V_x$ cover $U$.
|
|
By the sheaf axiom for $\mathcal{O}_X$ there is
|
|
$\ell \in \mathcal{O}_X(U)$ with $\ell\defon{V_x} =\lambda_x$.
|
|
It follows that $\ell=\lambda$.
|
|
\item
|
|
By the definition of variety,
|
|
every $x \in U$ has a quasi-affine neighbourhood $V \subseteq U$.
|
|
We can assume $U$ to be quasi-affine
|
|
and $X = V(I) \subseteq \mathfrak{k}^n$,
|
|
as the general assertion follows by an application of ii).
|
|
If $x \in U$ there are a neighbourhood
|
|
$x \in W \subseteq U$ and $a,b \in R = \mathfrak{k}[X_1,\ldots,X_n]$
|
|
such that $\vartheta(y) = \frac{a(y)}{b(y)}$
|
|
for $y \in W$, with $b(y) \neq 0$.
|
|
Then $a(x) \neq 0$ as $\vartheta(x) \neq 0$.
|
|
Replacing $W$ by $W \setminus V(a)$,
|
|
we may assume that $a$ has no zeroes on $W$.
|
|
Then $\lambda(y) = \frac{b(y)}{a(y)}$ for $y \in W$ has a
|
|
non-vanishing denominator and $\lambda \in \mathcal{O}_X(U)$.
|
|
We have $\lambda \cdot \vartheta = 1$,
|
|
thus $\vartheta \in \mathcal{O}_X(U)^{\times}$.
|
|
\end{enumerate}

\begin{proposition}[About affine varieties]\,

\label{propaffvar}

\begin{itemize}

Let $X,Y$ be varieties over $\mathfrak{k}$.

Then the map

is injective when $Y$ is quasi-affine

and bijective when $Y$ is affine.

|
& \longmapsto
|

(\mathcal{O}_X(X) \xrightarrow{f^{\ast}} \mathcal{O}_Y(Y))
|

\end{align*}
|
|
restricts to an equivalence of categories between the category
|
|
of affine varieties over $\mathfrak{k}$
|
|
and the full subcategory $\mathcal{A}$ of $\Alg_\mathfrak{k}$,
|
|
having the $\mathfrak{k}$-algebras $A$ of finite type
|
|
with $\nil A = \{0\} $ as objects.
|
|
\end{itemize}
|
|
\end{proposition}
|
|
|
|
\begin{remark}
|
|
It is clear that $\nil(\mathcal{O}_X(X)) = \{0\}$ for arbitrary varieties.
|
|
For general varieties it is however not true that $\mathcal{O}_X(X)$ is a
|
|
$\mathfrak{k}$-algebra of finite type.
|
|
There are counterexamples even for quasi-affine $X$.
|
|
%TODO
|
|
|
|
If, however, $X$ is affine, we may assume w.l.o.g.~that $X = V(I)$
|
|
where $I = \sqrt{I} \subseteq R$ is an ideal
|
|
with $R = \mathfrak{k}[X_1,\ldots,X_n]$.
|
|
Then $\mathcal{O}_X(X) \cong R / I$ (see \ref{structuresheafri})
|
|
is a $\mathfrak{k}$-algebra of finite type.
|
|
\end{remark}
|
|
|
|
\begin{proof}
|
|
It suffices to investigate $\phi$ when $Y$ is an open subset of
|
|
$V(I) \subseteq \mathfrak{k}^n$,
|
|
where $I = \sqrt{I} \subseteq R$ is an ideal and $Y = V(I)$
|
|
when $Y$ is affine.
|
|
Let $(f_1,\ldots,f_n)$ be the components of
|
|
$X \xrightarrow{f} Y \subseteq \mathfrak{k}^n$.
|
|
Let $Y \xrightarrow{\xi_i} \mathfrak{k}$ be the $i$-th coordinate.
|
|
By definition $f_i = f^{\ast}(\xi_i)$.
|
|
Thus $f$ is uniquely determined by
|
|
$\mathcal{O}_Y(Y) \xrightarrow{f^{\ast}} \mathcal{O}_X(X)$.
|
|
Conversely, let $Y = V(I)$
|
|
and $\mathcal{O}_Y(Y) \xrightarrow{\phi} \mathcal{O}_X(X)$
|
|
be a morphism of $\mathfrak{k}$-algebras.
|
|
Define $f_i \coloneqq \phi(\xi_i)$ and consider
|
|
$X \xrightarrow{f = (f_1,\ldots,f_n)} Y\subseteq \mathfrak{k}^n$.
|
|
\begin{claim}
|
|
$f$ has image contained in $Y$.
|
|
\end{claim}
|
|
\begin{subproof}
|
|
For $x \in X, \lambda \in I$ we have
|
|
$\lambda(f(x)) = (\phi(\lambda \mod I))(x) = 0$
|
|
as $\phi$ is a morphism of $\mathfrak{k}$-algebras.
|
|
Thus $f(x) \in V(I) = Y$.
|
|
\end{subproof}
|
|
\begin{claim}
|
|
$f$ is a morphism in $\Var_\mathfrak{k}$
|
|
\end{claim}
|
|
\begin{subproof}
|
|
For open $\Omega \subseteq Y$,
|
|
$U = f^{-1}(\Omega) = \{x \in X | \forall \lambda \in J ~ (\phi(\lambda))(x) \neq 0\}$
|
|
is open in $X$, where $Y \setminus \Omega = V(J)$.
|
|
If $\lambda \in \mathcal{O}_Y(\Omega)$ and $x \in U$,
|
|
then $f(x)$ has a neighbourhood $V$
|
|
such that there are $a,b \in R$ with $\lambda(v) = \frac{a(v)}{b(v)}$
|
|
and $b(v) \neq 0$ for all $v \in V$.
|
|
Let $W \coloneqq f^{-1}(V)$.
|
|
Then $\alpha \coloneqq \phi(a)\defon{W} \in \mathcal{O}_X(W)$,
|
|
$\beta \coloneqq \phi(b)\defon{W} \in \mathcal{O}_X(W)$.
|
|
By the second part of
|
|
\ref{localinverse} $\beta \in \mathcal{O}_X(W)^{\times}$ and
|
|
$f^{\ast}(\lambda)\defon{W} = \frac{\alpha}{\beta} \in \mathcal{O}_X(W)$.
|
|
The first part of \ref{localinverse} shows that
|
|
$f^{\ast}(\lambda) \in \mathcal{O}_X(U)$.
|
|
\end{subproof}
|
|
By definition of $f$, we have $f^{\ast} = \phi$.
|
|
This finished the proof of the first point.
|
|
|
|
|
|
\begin{claim}
|
|
The functor in the second part maps affine varieties to objects of
|
|
$\mathcal{A}$ and is essentially surjective.
|
|
\end{claim}
|
|
\begin{subproof}
|
|
It follows from the remark that the functor maps affine varieties to
|
|
objects of $\mathcal{A}$.
|
|
|
|
If $A \in \Ob(\mathcal{A})$ then $ A /\mathfrak{k}$ is of finite type,
|
|
thus $A \cong R / I$ for some $n$.
|
|
Since $\nil(A) = \{0\}$ we have $I = \sqrt{I}$,
|
|
as for $x \in \sqrt{I}$,
|
|
$x \mod I \in \nil(R / I) \cong \nil(A) = \{0\}$.
|
|
Thus $A \cong\mathcal{O}_X(X)$ where $X = V(I)$.
|
|
\end{subproof}
|
|
Fullness and faithfulness of the functor follow from the first point.
|
|
\end{proof}
|
|
|
|
\begin{remark}
|
|
Note that giving a contravariant functor $\mathcal{C} \to \mathcal{D}$ is
|
|
equivalent to giving a functor $\mathcal{C} \to \mathcal{D}\op$.
|
|
We have thus shown that the category of affine varieties is equivalent to
|
|
$\mathcal{A}\op$,
|
|
where $\mathcal{A} \subsetneq \Alg_\mathfrak{k}$ is the full
|
|
subcategory of $\mathfrak{k}$-algebras $A$ of finite type with
|
|
$\nil(A) = \{0\}$.

|

\subsubsection{Affine open subsets are a topology base}
|
|
|
|
\begin{definition}
|
|
A set $\mathcal{B}$ of open subsets of a topological space $X$ is
|
|
called a \vocab{topology base} for $X$
|
|
if every open subset of $X$ can be written as a (possibly empty)
|
|
union of elements of $\mathcal{B}$.
|
|
\end{definition}
|
|
\begin{fact}
|
|
If $X$ is a set,
|
|
then $\mathcal{B} \subseteq \mathcal{P}(X)$ is a base for some topology
|
|
on $X$ iff $X = \bigcup_{U \in \mathcal{B}} U$
|
|
and for arbitrary $U, V \in \mathcal{B}$,
|
|
$U \cap V$ is a union of elements of $\mathcal{B}$.
|
|
\end{fact}
|
|
\begin{definition}
|
|
Let $X$ be a variety.
|
|
An \vocab{affine open subset} of $X$ is a subset which is an affine variety.
|
|
\end{definition}
|
|
\begin{proposition}
|
|
\label{oxulocaf}
|
|
Let $X$ be an affine variety over $\mathfrak{k}$,
|
|
$\lambda \in \mathcal{O}_X(X)$ and $U = X \setminus V(\lambda)$.
|
|
Then $U$ is an affine variety
|
|
and the morphism $\phi: \mathcal{O}_X(X)_\lambda \to \mathcal{O}_X(U)$
|
|
defined by the restriction
|
|
$\mathcal{O}_X(X) \xrightarrow{\cdot |_U } \mathcal{O}_X(U)$
|
|
and the universal property of the localization is an isomorphism.
|
|
\end{proposition}
|
|
\begin{proof}
|
|
Let $X$ be an affine variety over $\mathfrak{k}$,
|
|
$\lambda \in \mathcal{O}_X(X)$ and $U = X \setminus V(\lambda)$.
|
|
The fact that $\lambda\defon{U} \in \mathcal{O}_x(U)^{\times}$ follows
|
|
from \ref{localinverse}.
|
|
Thus the universal property of the localization
|
|
$\mathcal{O}_X(X)_\lambda$ can be applied to
|
|
$\mathcal{O}_X(X) \xrightarrow{\cdot |_U} \mathcal{O}_X(U)$.
|
|
\[
|
|
\begin{tikzcd}
|
|
\mathcal{O}_X(X) \arrow{d}{\cdot |_U}\arrow{r}{x \mapsto \frac{x}{1}} & \mathcal{O}_X(X)_\lambda \arrow[dotted, bend left]{dl}{\existsone \phi} \\
|
|
\mathcal{O}_X(U) &
|
|
\end{tikzcd}

&Y \arrow[bend right, swap]{ld}{\pi_0} \arrow[bend right, swap]{d}{\pi}&\mathcal{O}_Y(Y) \cong A_\lambda \arrow{d}{\mathfrak{s}}& \\
|
|
X \arrow[hookrightarrow]{r}{}& U \arrow[swap]{u}{\sigma} & \mathcal{O}_X(U)
|
|
\end{tikzcd}
|
|
\]
|
|
For the rest of the proof,
|
|
we may assume $X = V(I) \subseteq \mathfrak{k}^n$
|
|
where $I = \sqrt{I} \subseteq R \coloneqq\mathfrak{k}[X_1,\ldots,X_n]$
|
|
is an ideal.
|
|
Then $A \coloneqq \mathcal{O}_X(X) \cong R / I$
|
|
and there is $\ell \in R$
|
|
such that $\ell\defon{X} = \lambda$.
|
|
Let $Y = V(J) \subseteq \mathfrak{k}^{n+1}$
|
|
where $J \subseteq \mathfrak{k}[Z,X_1,\ldots,X_n]$ is generated by the
|
|
elements of $I$ and $1 - Z\ell(X_1,\ldots,X_n)$.
|
|
|
|
Then $\mathcal{O}_Y(Y) \cong \mathfrak{k}[Z,X_1,\ldots,X_n] / J \cong A[Z] / (1 -\lambda Z) \cong A_\lambda$.
|
|
By the proposition about affine varieties (\ref{propaffvar}),
|
|
the morphism
|
|
$\mathfrak{s}: \mathcal{O}_Y(Y) \cong A_\lambda \to \mathcal{O}_X(U)$
|
|
corresponds to a morphism $U \xrightarrow{\sigma} Y$.
|
|
We have $\mathfrak{s}(Z \mod J) = \lambda^{-1}$ and
|
|
$\mathfrak{s}(X_i \mod J) = X_i \mod I$.
|
|
Thus $\sigma(x) = (\lambda(x)^{-1}, x)$ for $x \in U$.
|
|
Moreover, the projection $Y \xrightarrow{\pi_0} X$ dropping the
|
|
$Z$-coordinate has image contained in $U$,
|
|
as for $(z,x) \in Y$ the equation
|
|
\[
|
|
1 = z\lambda(x)
|
|
\]
|
|
implies $\lambda(x) \neq 0$.
|
|
It thus defines a morphism $Y \xrightarrow{\pi} U$
|
|
and by the description of $\sigma$
|
|
it follows that $\sigma \pi = \Id_U$.
|
|
Similarly it follows that $\sigma \pi = \Id_Y$.
|
|
Thus, $\sigma$ and $\pi$ are inverse to each other.
|
|
\end{proof}
|
|
\begin{corollary}
|
|
\label{affopensubtopbase}
|
|
The affine open subsets of a variety $X$ are a topology base on $X$.
|
|
\end{corollary}
|
|
\begin{proof}
|
|
Let $X = V(I) \subseteq \mathfrak{k}^n$
|
|
with $I = \sqrt{I}$.
|
|
If $U \subseteq X$ is open then $X \setminus U = V(J)$
|
|
with $J \supseteq I$ and $U = \bigcup_{f \in J} (X \setminus V(f))$.
|
|
Thus $U$ is a union of affine open subsets.
|
|
The same then holds for arbitrary quasi-affine varieties.
|
|
|
|
Let $X$ be any variety, $U \subseteq X$ open and $x \in U$.
|
|
By the definition of variety, $x$ has a neighbourhood $V_x$ which is
|
|
quasi-affine,
|
|
and replacing $V_x$ by $U \cap V_x$ which is also quasi-affine
|
|
we may assume $V_x \subseteq U$.
|
|
$V_x$ is a union of its affine open subsets.
|
|
Because $U$ is the union of the $V_x$,
|
|
$U$ as well is a union of affine open subsets.
|
|

\begin{definition}[Stalk]

Let $\mathcal{G}$ be a presheaf of sets on the topological space $X$,

and let $x \in X$.
|
|
The \vocab{stalk} (\vocab[Stalk]{Halm}) of $\mathcal{G}$ at $x$
|

is the set of equivalence classes of pairs $(U,

\gamma)$, where $U$ is an open neighbourhood
|
|
of $x$ and $\gamma \in \mathcal{G}(U)$ and the equivalence relation
|

$\sim $ is defined as follows:

$( U , \gamma) \sim (V, \delta)$ iff there exists an open

neighbourhood $W \subseteq U \cap V$ of $x$
|

such that $\gamma \defon{W} = \delta \defon{W}$.

If $\mathcal{G}$ is a presheaf of groups,

one can define a groups structure on $\mathcal{G}_x$ by

\[

= (U \cap V, \gamma \defon{U \cap V} \cdot \delta\defon{U \cap V}) / \sim.

\]
|
|
|
|
If $\mathcal{G}$ is a presheaf of rings,
|
|
one can similarly define a ring structure on $\mathcal{G}_x$.
|
|
|
|
|
|
If $U$ is an open neighbourhood of $x \in X$,
|
|
then we have a map (resp. homomorphism)
|
|
\begin{align*}
|
|
\cdot_x : \mathcal{G}(U) & \longrightarrow \mathcal{G}_x\\
|
|
\gamma & \longmapsto \gamma_x \coloneqq (U, \gamma) / \sim
|
|
\end{align*}
|
|
|
|
\end{definition}
|
|
\begin{fact}
|
|
Let $\gamma,\delta \in \mathcal{G}(U)$.
|
|
If $\mathcal{G}$ is a sheaf%
|
|
\footnote{or, more generally, a separated presheaf}
|
|
and if for all $x \in U$,
|
|
we have $\gamma_x = \delta_x$,
|
|
then $\gamma = \delta$.
|
|
|
|
In the case of a sheaf,
|
|
the image of the injective map
|
|
$\mathcal{G}(U) \xrightarrow{\gamma \mapsto (\gamma_x)_{x \in U}}
|
|
\prod_{x \in U} \mathcal{G}_x$
|
|
is the set of all $(g_x)_{x \in U} \in \prod_{x \in U} \mathcal{G}_x$
|
|
satisfying the following \vocab{coherence condition}:
|
|
For every $x \in U$, there are an open neighbourhood $W_x \subseteq U$ of $x$ and
|
|
$g^{(x)} \in \mathcal{G}(W_x)$ with $g_y^{(x)} = g_y$ for all $y \in W_x$.
|
|
\end{fact}
|
|
\begin{proof}
|
|
Because of $\gamma_x = \delta_x$,
|
|
there is $x \in W_x \subseteq U$ open
|
|
such that $\gamma\defon{W_x} = \delta\defon{W_x}$.
|
|
As the $W_x$ cover $U$, $\gamma = \delta$ by the sheaf axiom.
|
|
\end{proof}
|
|
\begin{definition}
|
|
Let $\mathcal{G}$ be a sheaf of functions.
|
|
Then $\gamma_x$ is called the \vocab{germ} of the function $\gamma$ at $x$.
|
|
The \vocab[Germ!value at $x$]{value at $x$}
|
|
of $g = (U, \gamma) / \sim \in \mathcal{G}_x$
|
|
defined as $g(x) \coloneqq \gamma(x)$,
|
|
which is independent of the choice of the representative $\gamma$.
|
|
\end{definition}
|
|
\begin{remark}
|
|
If $\mathcal{G}$ is a sheaf of $C^{\infty}$-functions
|
|
(resp.~holomorphic functions),
|
|
then $\mathcal{G}_x$ is called the ring of germs of $C^\infty$-functions
|
|
(resp.~of holomorphic functions) at $x$.

\subsubsection{The local ring of an affine variety}
|
|
\begin{definition}
|
|
If $X$ is a variety,
|
|
the stalk $\mathcal{O}_{X,x}$ of the structure sheaf at $x$
|
|
is called the \vocab{local ring} of $X$ at $x$.
|
|
This is indeed a local ring,
|
|
with maximal ideal
|
|
$\mathfrak{m}_x = \{f \in \mathcal{O}_{X,x} | f(x) = 0\}$.
|
|
\end{definition}
|
|
\begin{proof}
|
|
By \ref{localring} it suffices to show that $\mathfrak{m}_x$
|
|
is a proper ideal, which is trivial,
|
|
and that the elements of $\mathcal{O}_{X,x} \setminus \mathfrak{m}_x$
|
|
are units in $\mathcal{O}_{X,x}$.
|
|
Let $g = (U, \gamma)/\sim \in \mathcal{O}_{X,x}$ and $g(x) \neq 0$.
|
|
$\gamma$ is Zariski continuous (first point of \ref{localinverse}).
|
|
Thus $V(\gamma)$ is closed.
|
|
By replacing $U$ by $U \setminus V(\gamma)$
|
|
we may assume that $\gamma$ vanishes nowhere on $U$.
|
|
By the third point of \ref{localinverse} we have
|
|
$\gamma \in \mathcal{O}_X(U)^{\times}$.
|
|
$(\gamma^{-1})_x$ is an inverse to $g$.
|
|
\end{proof}
|
|
|
|
\begin{proposition}
|
|
\label{proplocalring}
|
|
Let $X = \Va(I) \subseteq \mathfrak{k}^n$ be equipped with its
|
|
usual structure sheaf,
|
|
where $I = \sqrt{I} \subseteq R = \mathfrak{k}[X_1,\ldots,X_n]$.
|
|
Let $x \in X$ and $A = \mathcal{O}_X(X) \cong R / I$.
|
|
$\{P \in R | P(x) = 0\} \text{\reflectbox{$\coloneqq$}} \fn_x \subseteq R$
|
|
is maximal, $I \subseteq \fn_x$
|
|
and $\mathfrak{m}_x \coloneqq \fn_x / I$ is the maximal ideal of elements
|
|
of $A$ vanishing at $x$.
|
|
If $\lambda \in A \setminus \mathfrak{m}_x$,
|
|
we have $\lambda_x \in \mathcal{O}_{X,x}^{\times}$,
|
|
where $\lambda_x$ denotes the image under
|
|
$A \cong \mathcal{O}_X(X) \to \mathcal{O}_{X,x}$.
|
|
By the universal property of the localization,
|
|
there exists a unique ring homomorphism
|
|
$A_{\mathfrak{m}_x} \xrightarrow{\iota} \mathcal{O}_{X,x}$
|
|
such that
|
|
\[
|
|
\begin{tikzcd}
|
|
A \arrow{r}{} \arrow{d}{\lambda \mapsto \lambda_x} &
|
|
A_{\mathfrak{m}_x} \arrow[dotted, bend left]{ld}{\existsone \iota} \\
|
|
\mathcal{O}_{X,x}
|
|
\end{tikzcd}
|
|
\]
|
|
commutes.
|
|
|
|
The morphism $A_{\mathfrak{m}_x}\xrightarrow{\iota} \mathcal{O}_{X,x}$
|
|
is an isomorphism.
|
|
\end{proposition}
|
|
\begin{proof}
|
|
To show surjectivity,
|
|
let $\ell = (U, \lambda) / \sim \in \mathcal{O}_{X,x}$,
|
|
where $U$ is an open neighbourhood of $x$ in $X$.
|
|
We have $X \setminus U = V(J)$ where $J \subseteq A$ is an ideal.
|
|
As $x \in U$ there is $f \in J$ with $f(x) \neq 0$.
|
|
Replacing $U $ by $X \setminus V(f)$ we may assume $U = X \setminus V(f)$.
|
|
By \ref{oxulocaf},
|
|
$\mathcal{O}_X(U) \cong A_f$,
|
|
and $\lambda = f^{-n}\vartheta$ for some $n \in \N$ and $\vartheta \in A$.
|
|
Then $\ell = \iota(f^{-n} \vartheta)$
|
|
where the last fraction is taken in $A_{\mathfrak{m}_x}$.
|
|
|
|
Let $\lambda = \frac{\vartheta}{g} \in A_{\mathfrak{m}_x}$
|
|
with $\iota(\lambda) = 0$.
|
|
It is easy to see that
|
|
$\iota(\lambda) = (X \setminus V(g), \frac{\vartheta}{g}) / \sim $.
|
|
Thus there is an open neighbourhood $U$ of $x$ in $X \setminus V(g)$
|
|
such that $\vartheta$ vanishes on $U$.
|
|
Similar as before there is $h \in A$
|
|
with $h(x) \neq 0$ and $W = X \setminus V(h) \subseteq U$.
|
|
By the isomorphism $\mathcal{O}_X(W) \cong A_h$,
|
|
there is $n \in \N$ with $h^{n}\vartheta = 0$ in $A$.
|
|
Since $h \not\in \mathfrak{m}_x$,
|
|
$h$ is a unit
|
|
and the image of $\vartheta$ in $A_{\mathfrak{m}_x}$ vanishes,
|
|
implying $\lambda = 0$.
|
|
\end{proof}
|
|
\subsubsection{Intersection multiplicities and Bezout's theorem}
|
|
\begin{definition}
|
|
Let $R = \mathfrak{k}[X_0,X_1,X_2]$ equipped with its usual grading
|
|
and let $x \in \mathbb{P}^{2}$.
|
|
Let $G \in R_g, H \in R_h$ be homogeneous polynomials
|
|
with $x \in V(G) \cap V(h)$.
|
|
Let $\ell\in R_1$ such that $\ell(x) \neq 0$.
|
|
Then $x \in U = \mathbb{P}^2 \setminus V(\ell)$ and the rational functions
|
|
$\gamma = \ell^{-g}G, \eta = \ell^{-h}H$ are elements of
|
|
$\mathcal{O}_{\mathbb{P}^2}(U)$.
|
|
Let $I_x(G,H) \subseteq \mathcal{O}_{\mathbb{P}^2,x}$ denote the ideal
|
|
generated by $\gamma_x$ and $\eta_x$.
|
|
|
|
\noindent The dimension
|
|
$\dim_{\mathfrak{k}}(\mathcal{O}_{X,x} / I_x(G,H)) \text{\reflectbox{$\coloneqq$}} i_x(G,H)$
|
|
is called the \vocab{intersection multiplicity} of $G$ and $H$ at $x$.
|
|
\end{definition}
|
|
\begin{remark}
|
|
If $\tilde \ell \in R_1$ also satisfies $\tilde \ell(x) \neq 0$,
|
|
then the image of $\tilde \ell / \ell$ under
|
|
$\mathcal{O}_{\mathbb{P}^2}(U) \to \mathcal{O}_{\mathbb{P}^2,x}$ is a unit,
|
|
showing that the image of $\tilde \gamma = \tilde \ell^{-g} G$ in
|
|
$\mathcal{O}_{\mathbb{P}^2,x}$ is multiplicatively equivalent to $\gamma_x$,
|
|
and similarly for $\eta_x$.
|
|
Thus $I_x(G,H)$ does not depend on the choice of $\ell \in R_1$
|
|
with $\ell(x) \neq 0$.
|
|
\end{remark}
|
|
\begin{theorem}[Bezout's theorem]
|
|
In the above situation,
|
|
assume that $V(H)$ and $V(G)$ intersect properly
|
|
in the sense that $V(G) \cap V(H) \subseteq \mathbb{P}^2$
|
|
has no irreducible component of dimension $\ge 1$.
|
|
Then
|
|
\[
|
|
\sum_{x \in V(G) \cap V(H)} i_x(G,H) = gh.
|
|
\]
|
|
Thus, $V(G) \cap V(H)$ has $gh$ elements counted by multiplicity.
