field of algebraic functions
1Algebraic curve — In algebraic geometry, an algebraic curve is an algebraic variety of dimension one. The theory of these curves in general was quite fully developed in the nineteenth century, after many particular examples had been considered, starting with… …
2Field (mathematics) — This article is about fields in algebra. For fields in geometry, see Vector field. For other uses, see Field (disambiguation). In abstract algebra, a field is a commutative ring whose nonzero elements form a group under multiplication. As such it …
3Algebraic variety — This article is about algebraic varieties. For the term a variety of algebras , and an explanation of the difference between a variety of algebras and an algebraic variety, see variety (universal algebra). The twisted cubic is a projective… …
4Field extension — In abstract algebra, field extensions are the main object of study in field theory. The general idea is to start with a base field and construct in some manner a larger field which contains the base field and satisfies additional properties. For… …
5Algebraic function — In mathematics, an algebraic function is informally a function which satisfies a polynomial equation whose coefficients are themselves polynomials. For example, an algebraic function in one variable x is a solution y for an equation: a n(x)y^n+a… …
6Algebraic geometry and analytic geometry — In mathematics, algebraic geometry and analytic geometry are two closely related subjects. While algebraic geometry studies algebraic varieties, analytic geometry deals with complex manifolds and the more general analytic spaces defined locally… …
7Algebraic space — In mathematics, an algebraic space is a generalization of the schemes of algebraic geometry introduced by Michael Artin for use in deformation theory.DefinitionAn algebraic space X comprises a schemeOne can always assume that U is an affine… …
8Algebraic number field — In mathematics, an algebraic number field (or simply number field) F is a finite (and hence algebraic) field extension of the field of rational numbers Q. Thus F is a field that contains Q and has finite dimension when considered as a vector… …
9Algebraic geometry — This Togliatti surface is an algebraic surface of degree five. Algebraic geometry is a branch of mathematics which combines techniques of abstract algebra, especially commutative algebra, with the language and the problems of geometry. It… …
10Algebraic K-theory — In mathematics, algebraic K theory is an important part of homological algebra concerned with defining and applying a sequence Kn(R) of functors from rings to abelian groups, for all integers n. For historical reasons, the lower K groups K0 and… …
