Chow group

In algebraic geometry, the Chow groups (named after Wei-Liang Chow by Claude Chevalley) of an algebraic variety over any field are algebro-geometric analogs of the homology of a topological space. The elements of the Chow group are formed out of subvarieties (so-called algebraic cycles) in a similar way to how simplicial or cellular homology groups are formed out of subcomplexes. When the variety is smooth, the Chow groups can be interpreted as cohomology groups (compare Poincaré duality) and have a multiplication called the intersection product. The Chow groups carry rich information about an algebraic variety, and they are correspondingly hard to compute in general. (Wikipedia).

José Ignacio Burgos Gil: Arithmetic intersection of Bloch higher cycles

The lecture was held within the framework of the Hausdorff Trimester Program: Periods in Number Theory, Algebraic Geometry and Physics. Abstract: We give a new definition of higher arithmetic Chow groups for smooth projective varieties defined over a number field, which is similar to Gill

What is a Chow Ring?

This is a lazy introduction to the idea of a Chow Ring. I don't prove anything :-(. Maybe soon in another video.

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

Definition of a group Lesson 24

In this video we take our first look at the definition of a group. It is basically a set of elements and the operation defined on them. If this set of elements and the operation defined on them obey the properties of closure and associativity, and if one of the elements is the identity el

301.2 Definition of a Group

A group is (in a sense) the simplest structure in which we can do the familiar tasks associated with "algebra." First, in this video, we review the definition of a group.

Group Definition (expanded) - Abstract Algebra

The group is the most fundamental object you will study in abstract algebra. Groups generalize a wide variety of mathematical sets: the integers, symmetries of shapes, modular arithmetic, NxM matrices, and much more. After learning about groups in detail, you will then be ready to contin

Chow ring 2: Chern classes

This lecture give an overview of Chern classes of nonsingular algebraic varieties. We first define the Chern class of a lline bundle by looking at the cycle of zeros of a section. Then we define Chern classes of higher rank vector bundles by looking at the line bundle O(1) over the corresp
