For an irreducible algebraic variety and , the local ring consists of germs of rational functions regular on a neighbourhood of . If has ideal , its Zariski tangent space is
The given variety is the blowup of the affine plane at the origin. On the chart , put ; then , so are free affine coordinates. On the chart , put ; then , so are free affine coordinates. These two smooth affine-plane charts cover , hence every point of is smooth.
If , the equation forcesConsequently restricts to an isomorphism away from the origin, and is therefore birational. Above the origin, however,so is not injective and cannot be an isomorphism of algebraic varieties. Birationality gives
For any morphism with affine, its restriction to the exceptional curve is constant: every regular function on a projective line is constant, and the affine coordinate functions of therefore have constant pullbacks. Since has more than one point, is not injective. If itself were affine, its identity morphism would contradict this conclusion, so is not affine.
Over , is not compact in the Euclidean topology: the sequence has no convergent subsequence. Every complex projective variety is Euclidean compact. Since compactness is preserved by homeomorphisms, cannot be homeomorphic to a projective variety.

The Lebesgue differentiation theorem states that if , thenfor Lebesgue almost every . The Radon-Nikodym theorem states that if two sigma-finite measures satisfy , then there is a nonnegative measurable function , unique -almost everywhere, such that .
For any , take and let be a planar sector of angle . Every disc centred at the origin meets this sector in the proportionso its measure density at is .
Apply the differentiation theorem to the indicator function . Its averages over balls are exactly , so the Lebesgue density theorem givesalmost everywhere. If , every numerator vanishes, so the density is zero wherever its denominator is nonzero. Conversely, if the density vanishes almost everywhere, the displayed identity gives almost everywhere, hence .
Finally suppose and are mutually absolutely continuous measures. Write . Then almost everywhere by the positive Radon-Nikodym derivative result. At almost every , the differentiation theorem applied to both and givesThus the -density also exists and belongs to at -almost every point.
