# Friday, October 01 :::{.remark} Recall the Proj construction: for $S = \bigoplus_{d\geq 0} S_d \in \gr\CRing$ we define the irrelevant ideal $S_+ \da \bigoplus _{d\geq 1} S_d$ and \[ \Proj S &\da \ts{p\in \spec S \text{ homog } \st p\not\contains S_+} \\ \OO_{\Proj S} &\da \ts{s: U\to \Disjoint_{p\in U} S\primelocalize{p} \st s(p) \in S\primelocalize{p}, s \text{ locally a fraction}} ,\] recalling that $S\primelocalize{p} = \ts{a /f \st \deg a = \deg f, a,f\in S, f\not\in p}$. We showed this was a locally ringed space using \[ ( D(f), \ro{\OO_{\Proj S}}{D(f)} \iso (\spec S\localize{f}, \OO_{\spec S\localize{f}}) ,\] where $D(f) \da \ts{p\in \proj S \st f\not\in p}$, and thus $\Proj S \in \Sch$. ::: :::{.exercise title="?"} Check that there is a natural map of schemes $\Proj S\to \spec S_0$. ::: :::{.remark} Consider \[ \PP^n\slice R \da \Proj R[x_0,\cdots, x_n] && R = k = \bar{k} \in \Field .\] Then the closed points of $\PP^n\slice k$ are of the form $\gens{a_i x_j - a_j x_i} \in \mspec \kxn$ for points $[a_0: \cdots : a_n] \in k^n/\sim$ where $\vector a \sim \lambda \vector a$ for $\lambda \in k\units$. Note that $D(x_i) = \ts{p\in \PP^n\slice k \st x_i \not\in p}$ -- what are the closed points? We discard the hyperplane $a_i = 0$ in $\PP^n$ to obtain \begin{tikzpicture} \fontsize{45pt}{1em} \node (node_one) at (0,0) { \import{/home/zack/SparkleShare/github.com/Notes/Class_Notes/2021/Fall/Schemes/sections/figures}{2021-10-01_11-43.pdf_tex} }; \end{tikzpicture} Then $x_i \in \mfm_q$ for $q \da [a_0: \cdots : a_n]$ iff $a_i=0$, and \[ D(x_i) &= \spec \kxn\localize{x_i} \\ &= \ts{f(x_0, \cdots, x_n)/x_i^d \st \deg f = d} \\ &= \ts{f\qty{ {x_0\over x_i }, \cdots, 1, \cdots, {x_n \over x_i }}} \\ &= k\adjoin{{x_0\over x_i}, \cdots, {x_n \over x_i} } \\ &\cong \AA^n\slice k .\] We claim that $\Union_{i\geq 0} D(x_i) = \PP^n\slice k$, or equivalently $\emptyset = \Intersect_{i \geq 0} V(x_i) = V(\gens{x_0,\cdots, x_n})$. But this is true since $\gens{x_0, \cdots, x_n} = S^+$ is the irrelevant ideal. ::: :::{.proposition title="?"} Let $k = \bar k \in \Field$. Then there is a fully faithful embedding of categories \[ F: \Var\slice k \embeds \Sch\slice k .\] Here $\Var\slice k$ are defined as topological spaces with sheaves of rings of *regular functions* which admitted an affine cover of the form $V(I) \subseteq \AA^n\slice k$ (viewed as a variety). ::: :::{.example title="Going from a variety to a scheme"} Consider $X\da \AA^2\slice k$ as a variety and separately as a scheme $X'$. As a variety, $X \da k\cartpower{2}$ with the Zariski topology, while as a scheme $X' = \spec k[x, y]$ with the Zariski topology. Then there is an inclusion $X \injects X'$ which is a bijection on closed points. More generally, for $X\in \Top$ any space, define $t(X)$ to be the set of irreducible closed subsets. Some facts: - For $Y \subseteq X$ closed, $t(Y) \subseteq t(X)$, - $t(Y_1 \union Y_2) = t(Y_1) \union t(Y_2)$, - $t( \Intersect_i Y_i) = \Intersect_i t(Y_i)$. Define a topology on $t(X)$ by declaring closed sets to be any of the form $t(Y)$ for $Y \subseteq X$ closed. Note that the scheme $X'$ has non-closed points, i.e. irreducible subvarieties, i.e. irreducible closed subsets of $X$ as a variety: \begin{tikzpicture} \fontsize{35pt}{1em} \node (node_one) at (0,0) { \import{/home/zack/SparkleShare/github.com/Notes/Class_Notes/2021/Fall/Schemes/sections/figures}{2021-10-01_12-02.pdf_tex} }; \end{tikzpicture} Then consider the map \[ \alpha: X &\to t(X) \\ p &\mapsto \ts{p} ,\] noting that this is only well-defined if points are closed in $X$. Now let $V\in \Var\slice k$ with its sheaf of regular functions $\OO_V$ (i.e. restrictions of polynomials). Define a sheaf of rings on $t(V)$ as $\alpha_* \OO_V$, using that $\alpha$ is continuous, and noting that $\alpha\inv(U) = U \intersect \alpha(X)$. To see this is a scheme, it suffices to check for $V$ affine since this entire construction is compatible with restriction and we can take an affine cover. Letting $I = I(V)$ for $V\in \Aff\Var\slice k$, then $(t(V), \alpha_* \OO_V)\iso \spec k[V] \da \spec \kxn/I$. There is a bijection \[ t(V) &\mapstofrom \spec k[V] \\ Y &\mapsto I(Y) \\ V(p) &\mapsfrom p .\] One can check that the topology on $t(V)$ bijects with the Zariski topology on $\spec k[V]$, and \[ \alpha_* \OO_V(t(V)) = \OO_V(V) = \OO_{\spec k[V]}(\spec k[V]) = k[V] .\] ::: :::{.exercise title="?"} Check this on open subsets of $t(V)$. ::: :::{.remark} $\OO_X \in \Sh(X, \kalg)$ being a sheaf of $k\dash$algebras means the following diagram commutes: \begin{tikzcd} k && {\OO_X(U)} \\ \\ && {\OO_X(V)} \arrow[from=1-1, to=1-3] \arrow[from=1-1, to=3-3] \arrow["{\res_{UV}}", from=1-3, to=3-3] \end{tikzcd} > [Link to Diagram](https://q.uiver.app/?q=WzAsMyxbMCwwLCJrIl0sWzIsMCwiXFxPT19YKFUpIl0sWzIsMiwiXFxPT19YKFYpIl0sWzAsMV0sWzAsMl0sWzEsMiwiXFxyZXNfe1VWfSJdXQ==) This is the data of a morphism $(X, \OO_X) \to \spec k$. ::: :::{.remark} What's the point of the theorem? Not everything of geometric interest is in the essential image of $F$. Consider $V(y-x^2) \subseteq \AA^2\slice k$, and consider intersecting it with lines $y=t$: \begin{tikzpicture} \fontsize{42pt}{1em} \node (node_one) at (0,0) { \import{/home/zack/SparkleShare/github.com/Notes/Class_Notes/2021/Fall/Schemes/sections/figures}{2021-10-01_12-19.pdf_tex} }; \end{tikzpicture} Letting $I_1 = I_1(\gens{y-x^2})$ and $I_2 = I(\gens{y-t})$, intersecting in varieties yields \[ V_1 \intersect V_2 = V(I_1 + I_2) = V(\sqrt{I_1 + I_2}) .\] One can check $I_1 + I_2 = (x-\sqrt t, y-t)\cdot (x+\sqrt t, y-t)$, and $\spec k[x, y] / \gens{y-x^2, y} = \spec k[x]/\gens{x^2}$ when $t=0$ (i.e. when there's a tangency with multiplicity), since the scheme intersection is $\spec k[x, y] / \gens{I_1 + I_2}$. Note that the regular functions on a point are just constant, so the sheaf of regular functions on a point is $k$ itself and thus doesn't pick up the multiplicity of the intersection. ::: :::{.remark} There can be issues for $\spec R$ when $R$ is finitely generated but not reduced! :::
