Algebraic stack

In mathematics, an algebraic stack is a vast generalization of algebraic spaces, or schemes, which are foundational for studying moduli theory. Many moduli spaces are constructed using techniques specific to algebraic stacks, such as Artin's representability theorem, which is used to construct the moduli space of pointed algebraic curves and the moduli stack of elliptic curves. Originally, they were introduced by Grothendieck to keep track of automorphisms on moduli spaces, a technique which allows for treating these moduli spaces as if their underlying schemes or algebraic spaces are smooth. But, through many generalizations the notion of algebraic stacks was finally discovered by Michael Artin. (Wikipedia).

Algebraic Spaces and Stacks: Representabilty

We define what it means for a functor to be representable. We define what it means for a category to be representable.

Algebraic Spaces and Stacks: Definitions

We give the definition of algebraic stacks and spaces! Woot! I think algebraic spaces don't get enough love or stacks get too much love. I'm not sure which one... Algebraic Spaces: http://stacks.math.columbia.edu/tag/025X Algebraic Stacks: http://stacks.math.columbia.edu/tag/026N

Algebraic Fractions | Algebra | Maths | FuseSchool

Algebraic fractions are simply fractions with algebraic expressions either on the top, bottom or both. We treat them in the same way as we would numerical fractions. In this video we look at how to simplify algebraic fractions, and how to add and subtract them. We can simplify by cance

Algebraic topology: Introduction

This lecture is part of an online course on algebraic topology. This is an introductory lecture, where we give a quick overview of some of the invariants of algebraic topology (homotopy groups, homology groups, K theory, and cobordism). The book "algebraic topology" by Allen Hatcher men

David Rydh. Local structure of algebraic stacks and applications

Abstract: Some natural moduli problems, such as moduli of sheaves and moduli of singular curves, give rise to stacks with infinite stabilizers that are not known to be quotient stacks. The local structure theorem states that many stacks locally look like the quotient of a scheme by the act
