Kähler differentials of a polynomial algebra

ID: kahler-differentials-of-a-polynomial-algebra

The Kähler differentials of a polynomial ring are free on the differentials of its variables. Assigning arbitrary values to these generators uniquely defines a derivation. Applying the Conormal exact sequence for Kähler differentials to a quotient gives its presentation by the formal derivatives of its defining equations.
