Semi-separated scheme Created 2026-09-24 Updated 2026-10-03
A scheme is semi-separated when the intersection of any two affine open subsets is affine, equivalently when its diagonal is affine. This condition makes affine covers acyclic for quasi-coherent sheaves.
Affine plane with doubled origin Created 2026-09-24 Updated 2026-10-14
The affine plane with doubled origin is formed by gluing two copies of by the identity away from the origin. The overlap is the punctured affine plane, so this scheme is nonseparated and the two-open affine cover is not acyclic for the structure sheaf.
The gluing resembles a non-Hausdorff manifold example, but this node concerns an algebraic scheme and its nonseparatedness, not a real manifold.
Morphism of schemes Created 2026-09-24 Updated 2026-10-14
A morphism of schemes is a morphism of locally ringed spaces. On affine schemes it is contravariantly equivalent to a homomorphism of their coordinate rings.
Noetherian scheme Created 2026-09-24 Updated 2026-10-14
A Noetherian scheme has a finite cover by affine schemes with each a Noetherian ring. Equivalently, it is quasi-compact and locally Noetherian.
Spectrum of a commutative ring Created 2026-09-24 Updated 2026-10-05
The spectrum of a commutative ring is the set of its prime ideals, with closed sets and a structure sheaf whose sections locally look like fractions.
Nonreduced scheme Created 2026-09-24 Updated 2026-10-03
A scheme is nonreduced when its structure sheaf contains a nonzero nilpotent element. For an affine scheme , this is equivalent to the ideal not being radical.
Simon absorption lemma Created 2026-09-24 Updated 2026-10-14
The Simon absorption lemma turns a scale-local estimate containing a sufficiently small multiple of the same quantity on a larger ball into a uniform estimate. Its boundary form uses balls intersected with a half-space and is the covering step that absorbs local boundary Hölder seminorms.

Minimizing geodesic Created 2026-09-24 Updated 2026-10-05
A minimizing geodesic realizes the Riemannian distance between its endpoints. A geodesic segment is locally minimizing, but need not remain globally minimizing beyond a cut point.
