Base change theoremsIn mathematics, the base change theorems relate the and the of sheaves. More precisely, they are about the base change map, given by the following natural transformation of sheaves: where is a of topological spaces and is a sheaf on X. Such theorems exist in different branches of geometry: for (essentially arbitrary) topological spaces and proper maps f, in algebraic geometry for (quasi-)coherent sheaves and f proper or g flat, similarly in analytic geometry, but also for étale sheaves for f proper or g smooth.
Direct image functorIn mathematics, the direct image functor is a construction in sheaf theory that generalizes the global sections functor to the relative case. It is of fundamental importance in topology and algebraic geometry. Given a sheaf F defined on a topological space X and a continuous map f: X → Y, we can define a new sheaf f∗F on Y, called the direct image sheaf or the pushforward sheaf of F along f, such that the global sections of f∗F is given by the global sections of F.
Géométrie complexeIn mathematics, complex geometry is the study of geometric structures and constructions arising out of, or described by, the complex numbers. In particular, complex geometry is concerned with the study of spaces such as complex manifolds and complex algebraic varieties, functions of several complex variables, and holomorphic constructions such as holomorphic vector bundles and coherent sheaves. Application of transcendental methods to algebraic geometry falls in this category, together with more geometric aspects of complex analysis.
Stalk (sheaf)The stalk of a sheaf is a mathematical construction capturing the behaviour of a sheaf around a given point. Sheaves are defined on open sets, but the underlying topological space consists of points. It is reasonable to attempt to isolate the behavior of a sheaf at a single fixed point of . Conceptually speaking, we do this by looking at small neighborhoods of the point. If we look at a sufficiently small neighborhood of , the behavior of the sheaf on that small neighborhood should be the same as the behavior of at that point.
Ideal sheafIn algebraic geometry and other areas of mathematics, an ideal sheaf (or sheaf of ideals) is the global analogue of an ideal in a ring. The ideal sheaves on a geometric object are closely connected to its subspaces. Let X be a topological space and A a sheaf of rings on X. (In other words, (X, A) is a ringed space.) An ideal sheaf J in A is a subobject of A in the of sheaves of A-modules, i.e., a subsheaf of A viewed as a sheaf of abelian groups such that Γ(U, A) · Γ(U, J) ⊆ Γ(U, J) for all open subsets U of X.
Construction managementConstruction management (CM) is a professional service that uses specialized, project management techniques and software to oversee the planning, design, construction and closeout of a project. The purpose of construction management is to control the quality of a project's scope, time / delivery and cost—sometimes referred to as a project management triangle or "triple constraints." CM is compatible with all project delivery systems, including design-bid-build, design-build, CM At-Risk and Public Private Partnerships.
Perverse sheafThe mathematical term perverse sheaves refers to a certain associated to a topological space X, which may be a real or complex manifold, or a more general topologically stratified space, usually singular. This concept was introduced in the thesis of Zoghman Mebkhout, gaining more popularity after the (independent) work of Joseph Bernstein, Alexander Beilinson, and Pierre Deligne (1982) as a formalisation of the Riemann-Hilbert correspondence, which related the topology of singular spaces (intersection homology of Mark Goresky and Robert MacPherson) and the algebraic theory of differential equations (microlocal calculus and holonomic D-modules of Joseph Bernstein, Masaki Kashiwara and Takahiro Kawai).
Fonction elliptique de JacobiEn mathématiques, les fonctions elliptiques de Jacobi sont des fonctions elliptiques d'une grande importance historique. Introduites par Carl Gustav Jakob Jacobi vers 1830, elles ont des applications directes, par exemple dans l'équation du pendule. Elles présentent aussi des analogies avec les fonctions trigonométriques, qui sont mises en valeur par le choix des notations sn et cn, qui rappellent sin et cos. Si les fonctions elliptiques thêta de Weierstrass semblent mieux adaptées aux considérations théoriques, les problèmes physiques pratiques font plus appel aux fonctions de Jacobi.
Fonction trigonométriquethumb|upright=1.35|Toutes les valeurs des fonctions trigonométriques d'un angle θ peuvent être représentées géométriquement. En mathématiques, les fonctions trigonométriques permettent de relier les longueurs des côtés d'un triangle en fonction de la mesure des angles aux sommets. Plus généralement, ces fonctions sont importantes pour étudier les triangles et les polygones, les cercles (on les appelle alors fonctions circulaires) et modéliser des phénomènes périodiques.
Algebra homomorphismIn mathematics, an algebra homomorphism is a homomorphism between two algebras. More precisely, if A and B are algebras over a field (or a ring) K, it is a function such that, for all k in K and x, y in A, one has The first two conditions say that F is a K-linear map, and the last condition says that F preserves the algebra multiplication. So, if the algebras are associative, F is a rng homomorphism, and, if the algebras are rings and F preserves the identity, it is a ring homomorphism.
Module homomorphismIn algebra, a module homomorphism is a function between modules that preserves the module structures. Explicitly, if M and N are left modules over a ring R, then a function is called an R-module homomorphism or an R-linear map if for any x, y in M and r in R, In other words, f is a group homomorphism (for the underlying additive groups) that commutes with scalar multiplication. If M, N are right R-modules, then the second condition is replaced with The of the zero element under f is called the kernel of f.
Morphisme d'anneauxUn morphisme d'anneaux est une application entre deux anneaux (unitaires) A et B, compatible avec les lois de ces anneaux et qui envoie le neutre multiplicatif de A sur le neutre multiplicatif de B. Un morphisme d'anneaux est une application f entre deux anneaux (unitaires) A et B qui vérifie les trois propriétés suivantes : Pour tous a, b dans A : f(a + b) = f(a) + f(b) f(a ∙ b) = f(a) ∙ f(b) f(1A) = 1B.
