  • Formal Power Series - Wikipedia, the Free Encyclopedia
    Formal power series - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Formal_power_series Formal power series From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia In mathematics, formal power series are a generalization of polynomials as formal objects, where the number of terms is allowed to be infinite; this implies giving up the possibility to substitute arbitrary values for indeterminates. This perspective contrasts with that of power series, whose variables designate numerical values, and which series therefore only have a definite value if convergence can be established. Formal power series are often used merely to represent the whole collection of their coefficients. In combinatorics, they provide representations of numerical sequences and of multisets, and for instance allow giving concise expressions for recursively defined sequences regardless of whether the recursion can be explicitly solved; this is known as the method of generating functions.

  • 6. Localization
    52 Andreas Gathmann 6. Localization Localization is a very powerful technique in commutative algebra that often allows to reduce ques- tions on rings and modules to a union of smaller “local” problems. It can easily be motivated both from an algebraic and a geometric point of view, so let us start by explaining the idea behind it in these two settings. Remark 6.1 (Motivation for localization). (a) Algebraic motivation: Let R be a ring which is not a field, i. e. in which not all non-zero elements are units. The algebraic idea of localization is then to make more (or even all) non-zero elements invertible by introducing fractions, in the same way as one passes from the integers Z to the rational numbers Q. Let us have a more precise look at this particular example: in order to construct the rational numbers from the integers we start with R = Z, and let S = Znf0g be the subset of the elements of R that we would like to become invertible. On the set R×S we then consider the equivalence relation (a;s) ∼ (a0;s0) , as0 − a0s = 0 a and denote the equivalence class of a pair (a;s) by s . The set of these “fractions” is then obviously Q, and we can define addition and multiplication on it in the expected way by a a0 as0+a0s a a0 aa0 s + s0 := ss0 and s · s0 := ss0 . (b) Geometric motivation: Now let R = A(X) be the ring of polynomial functions on a variety X. In the same way as in (a) we can ask if it makes sense to consider fractions of such polynomials, i.

  • Formal Power Series Rings, Inverse Limits, and I-Adic Completions of Rings
    Formal power series rings, inverse limits, and I-adic completions of rings Formal semigroup rings and formal power series rings We next want to explore the notion of a (formal) power series ring in finitely many variables over a ring R, and show that it is Noetherian when R is. But we begin with a definition in much greater generality. Let S be a commutative semigroup (which will have identity 1S = 1) written multi- plicatively. The semigroup ring of S with coefficients in R may be thought of as the free R-module with basis S, with multiplication defined by the rule h k X X 0 0 X X 0 ( risi)( rjsj) = ( rirj)s: i=1 j=1 s2S 0 sisj =s We next want to construct a much larger ring in which infinite sums of multiples of elements of S are allowed. In order to insure that multiplication is well-defined, from now on we assume that S has the following additional property: (#) For all s 2 S, f(s1; s2) 2 S × S : s1s2 = sg is finite. Thus, each element of S has only finitely many factorizations as a product of two k1 kn elements. For example, we may take S to be the set of all monomials fx1 ··· xn : n (k1; : : : ; kn) 2 N g in n variables. For this chocie of S, the usual semigroup ring R[S] may be identified with the polynomial ring R[x1; : : : ; xn] in n indeterminates over R. We next construct a formal semigroup ring denoted R[[S]]: we may think of this ring formally as consisting of all functions from S to R, but we shall indicate elements of the P ring notationally as (possibly infinite) formal sums s2S rss, where the function corre- sponding to this formal sum maps s to rs for all s 2 S.

  • 9. Ideals and the Zariski Topology Definition 9.1. Let X ⊂ a N Be A
    9. Ideals and the Zariski Topology Definition 9.1. Let X ⊂ An be a subset. The ideal of X, denoted I(X), is simply the set of all polynomials which vanish on X. Let S ⊂ K[x1; x2; : : : ; xn]. Then the vanishing locus of S, denoted V (S), is n f p 2 A j f(x) = 0; 8f 2 S g: Lemma 9.2. Let X, Y ⊂ An and I, J ⊂ K[x] be any subsets. (1) X ⊂ V (I(X)). (2) I ⊂ I(V (I)). (3) If X ⊂ Y then I(Y ) ⊂ I(X). (4) If I ⊂ J then V (J) ⊂ V (I). (5) If X is a closed subset then V (I(X)) = X. Proof. Easy exercise. Note that a similar version of (5), with ideals replacing closed subsets, does not hold. For example take the ideal I ⊂ K[x], given as hx2i. Then V (I) = f0g, and the ideal of functions vanishing at the origin is hxi. It is natural then to ask what is the relation between I and I(V (I)). Clearly if f n 2 I then f 2 I(V (I)). Definitionp 9.3. Let I be an ideal in a ring R. The radical of I, denoted I, is f r 2 R j rn 2 I, some n g: It is not hard to check that the radical is an ideal. Theorem 9.4 (Hilbert's Nullstellensatz). Let K be an algebraically closed field and let pI be an ideal. Then I(V (I)) = I. p Proof. One inclusion is clear, I(V (I)) ⊃ I.

  • Are Maximal Ideals? Solution. No Principal
    Math 403A Assignment 6. Due March 1, 2013. 1.(8.1) Which principal ideals in Z[x] are maximal ideals? Solution. No principal ideal (f(x)) is maximal. If f(x) is an integer n = 1, then (n, x) is a bigger ideal that is not the whole ring. If f(x) has positive degree, then ± take any prime number p that does not divide the leading coefficient of f(x). (p, f(x)) is a bigger ideal that is not the whole ring, since Z[x]/(p, f(x)) = Z/pZ[x]/(f(x)) is not the zero ring. 2.(8.2) Determine the maximal ideals in the following rings. (a). R R. × Solution. Since (a, b) is a unit in this ring if a and b are nonzero, a maximal ideal will contain no pair (a, 0), (0, b) with a and b nonzero. Hence, the maximal ideals are R 0 and 0 R. ×{ } { } × (b). R[x]/(x2). Solution. Every ideal in R[x] is principal, i.e., generated by one element f(x). The ideals in R[x] that contain (x2) are (x2) and (x), since if x2 R[x]f(x), then x2 = f(x)g(x), which 2 ∈ 2 2 means that f(x) divides x . Up to scalar multiples, the only divisors of x are x and x . (c). R[x]/(x2 3x + 2). − Solution. The nonunit divisors of x2 3x +2=(x 1)(x 2) are, up to scalar multiples, x2 3x + 2 and x 1 and x 2.

    NOTES IN COMMUTATIVE ALGEBRA: PART 1 KELLER VANDEBOGERT 1. Results/Definitions of Ring Theory It is in this section that a collection of standard results and definitions in commutative ring theory will be presented. For the rest of this paper, any ring R will be assumed commutative with identity. We shall also use "=" and "∼=" (isomorphism) interchangeably, where the context should make the meaning clear. 1.1. The Basics. Definition 1.1. A maximal ideal is any proper ideal that is not con- tained in any strictly larger proper ideal. The set of maximal ideals of a ring R is denoted m-Spec(R). Definition 1.2. A prime ideal p is such that for any a, b 2 R, ab 2 p implies that a or b 2 p. The set of prime ideals of R is denoted Spec(R). p Definition 1.3. The radical of an ideal I, denoted I, is the set of a 2 R such that an 2 I for some positive integer n. Definition 1.4. A primary ideal p is an ideal such that if ab 2 p and a2 = p, then bn 2 p for some positive integer n. In particular, any maximal ideal is prime, and the radical of a pri- mary ideal is prime. Date: September 3, 2017. 1 2 KELLER VANDEBOGERT Definition 1.5. The notation (R; m; k) shall denote the local ring R which has unique maximal ideal m and residue field k := R=m. Example 1.6. Consider the set of smooth functions on a manifold M.

(i) If x 6∈ P and P (0) is generated by n elements of R, prove that P is generated by n elements of R[[x]]. (ii) If x ∈ P and P (0) is generated by n elements of R, prove that P is generated by n + 1 elements of R[[x]]. (iii) If R is a PID, prove that every prime ideal of R[[x]] of height one is principal.

(b) If n is a positive integer and f := xn + y, then S/fS is a DVR that is a finite R-module if and only if R = Rb, i.e., R is complete. (c) If f is irreducible and fS 6= xS, then S/fS is a finite R-module implies that R is complete. (d) If R is complete, then S/fS is a finite R-module for each nonzero f in S such that fS ∩R = (0).

  • Maximal Ideals and Zorn's Lemma
    MAXIMAL IDEALS AND ZORN'S LEMMA 1. Maximal ideals and fields Proposition 1. Let R be a nontrivial, commutative, unital ring. Then R is simple if and only if it is a field. Proof. Suppose R is simple. Suppose 0 =6 x 2 R. Then xR is a nontrivial ideal of R, so xR = R. Thus 9 x−1 2 R : xx−1 = 1, i.e., x 2 R∗. Conversely, suppose R is a field and J is a nontrivial ideal of R. Consider 0 =6 x 2 J. Now 1 = xx−1 2 Jx−1 ⊆ J. Then if y 2 R, we have y = 1y 2 Jy ⊆ J, so J is improper. Definition 2. An ideal of a ring is maximal if it is proper, but is not properly contained in any proper ideal of the ring. Proposition 3. Let K be an ideal in a commutative, unital ring R. Then K is maximal if and only if R=K is a field. Proof. K is maximal , R=K is nontrivial and simple (cf. Exercise 2) , R=K is a field. Definition 4. In the context of Proposition 3, the field R=K is called the residue field of the maximal ideal K. 2. Zorn's Lemma and the existence of maximal ideals Definition 5. Let (X; ≤) be a poset.

  • CHAPTER 2 RING FUNDAMENTALS 2.1 Basic Definitions and Properties
    page 1 of Chapter 2 CHAPTER 2 RING FUNDAMENTALS 2.1 Basic Definitions and Properties 2.1.1 Definitions and Comments A ring R is an abelian group with a multiplication operation (a, b) → ab that is associative and satisfies the distributive laws: a(b+c)=ab+ac and (a + b)c = ab + ac for all a, b, c ∈ R. We will always assume that R has at least two elements,including a multiplicative identity 1 R satisfying a1R =1Ra = a for all a in R. The multiplicative identity is often written simply as 1,and the additive identity as 0. If a, b,and c are arbitrary elements of R,the following properties are derived quickly from the definition of a ring; we sketch the technique in each case. (1) a0=0a =0 [a0+a0=a(0+0)=a0; 0a +0a =(0+0)a =0a] (2) (−a)b = a(−b)=−(ab)[0=0b =(a+(−a))b = ab+(−a)b,so ( −a)b = −(ab); similarly, 0=a0=a(b +(−b)) = ab + a(−b), so a(−b)=−(ab)] (3) (−1)(−1) = 1 [take a =1,b= −1 in (2)] (4) (−a)(−b)=ab [replace b by −b in (2)] (5) a(b − c)=ab − ac [a(b +(−c)) = ab + a(−c)=ab +(−(ac)) = ab − ac] (6) (a − b)c = ac − bc [(a +(−b))c = ac +(−b)c)=ac − (bc)=ac − bc] (7) 1 = 0 [If 1 = 0 then for all a we have a = a1=a0 = 0,so R = {0},contradicting the assumption that R has at least two elements] (8) The multiplicative identity is unique [If 1 is another multiplicative identity then 1=11 =1] 2.1.2 Definitions and Comments If a and b are nonzero but ab = 0,we say that a and b are zero divisors;ifa ∈ R and for some b ∈ R we have ab = ba = 1,we say that a is a unit or that a is invertible.

  • 2 Localization and Dedekind Domains
    18.785 Number theory I Fall 2016 Lecture #2 09/13/2016 2 Localization and Dedekind domains 2.1 Localization of rings Let A be a commutative ring (unital, as always), and let S be a multiplicative subset of A; this means that S is closed under finite products (including the empty product, so 1 2 S), and S does not contain zero. To simplify matters let us further assume that S contains no zero divisors of A; equivalently, the map A !×s A is injective for all s 2 S. Definition 2.1. The localization of A with respect to S is the ring of equivalence classes S−1A := fa=s : a 2 A; s 2 Sg = ∼ where a=s ∼ a0=s0 if and only if as0 = a0s. This ring is also sometimes denoted A[S−1]. We canonically embed A in S−1A by identifying each a 2 A with the equivalence class a=1 in S−1A; our assumption that S has no zero divisors ensures that this map is injective. We thus view A as a subring of S−1A, and when A is an integral domain (the case of interest to us), we may regard S−1A as a subring of the fraction field of A., which can be defined as A−1A, the localization of A with respect to itself. If S ⊆ T are multiplicative subsets of A (neither containing zero divisors), we may view S−1A as a subring of T −1A. If ': A ! B is a ring homomorphism and b is a B-ideal, then φ(A−1) is an A-ideal called the contraction of b (to A) and sometimes denoted bc; when A is a subring of B and ' is the inclusion map we simply have bc = b \ A.
