Algebraic geometry

Algebraic space

In mathematics, algebraic spaces form a generalization of the schemes of algebraic geometry, introduced by Michael Artin for use in deformation theory. Intuitively, schemes are given by gluing together affine schemes using the Zariski topology, while algebraic spaces are given by gluing together affine schemes using the finer étale topology. Alternatively one can think of schemes as being locally isomorphic to affine schemes in the Zariski topology, while algebraic spaces are locally isomorphic to affine schemes in the étale topology. The resulting category of algebraic spaces extends the category of schemes and allows one to carry out several natural constructions that are used in the construction of moduli spaces but are not always possible in the smaller category of schemes, such as taking the quotient of a free action by a finite group (cf. the Keel–Mori theorem). (Wikipedia).

AlgTopReview: An informal introduction to abstract algebra

This is a review lecture on some aspects of abstract algebra useful for algebraic topology. It provides some background on fields, rings and vector spaces for those of you who have not studied these objects before, and perhaps gives an overview for those of you who have. Our treatment is

What is a Vector Space? (Abstract Algebra)

Vector spaces are one of the fundamental objects you study in abstract algebra. They are a significant generalization of the 2- and 3-dimensional vectors you study in science. In this lesson we talk about the definition of a vector space and give a few surprising examples. Be sure to su

Higher Algebra 10: E_n-Algebras

In this video we introduce E_n-Algebras in arbitrary symmetric monoidal infinity-categories. These interpolate between associated algebras (= E_1) and commutative algebras (= E_infinity). We also establish some categorical properties and investigate the case of the symmetric monoidal infin

This lesson is the beginning of a significant diversion from QED prerequisites. No student needs to understand Geometric Algebra in order to begin the study of QED. However, since we have pushed the formal structure of Maxwell's Equations as far as I know how to go, I think it makes sense
