Theorems in algebraic geometry

Chow's moving lemma

In algebraic geometry, Chow's moving lemma, proved by Wei-Liang Chow, states: given algebraic cycles Y, Z on a nonsingular quasi-projective variety X, there is another algebraic cycle Z' on X such that Z' is rationally equivalent to Z and Y and Z' intersect properly. The lemma is one of key ingredients in developing the intersection theory, as it is used to show the uniqueness of the theory. Even if Z is an effective cycle, it is not, in general, possible to choose the cycle Z' to be effective. (Wikipedia).

Chow ring 1. Introduction.

This lecture gives an introductory overview of the Chow ring of a nonsingular variety. The idea is to define a ring structure related to subvarieties with the product corresponding to intersection. There are several complications that have to be solved, in particular how to define intersec

Orbit of a set in abstract algebra

In this video we start to take a look at the orbit-stabilizer theorem. Our first stop is the orbit of a set. The orbit is created by taking an arbitrary element of a set and acting on that element by all the elements in the set of an an arbitrary group. In this video, we look at a few p

Victoria Hoskins: ​On the motive of the stack of vector bundles on a curve

Abstract: Following Grothendieck’s vision that a motive of an algebraic variety should capture many of its cohomological invariants, Voevodsky introduced a triangulated category of motives which partially realises this idea. After describing some of the properties of this category, I expla
