Relative dimension

In mathematics, specifically linear algebra and geometry, relative dimension is the dual notion to codimension. In linear algebra, given a quotient map , the difference dim V − dim Q is the relative dimension; this equals the dimension of the kernel. In fiber bundles, the relative dimension of the map is the dimension of the fiber. More abstractly, the codimension of a map is the dimension of the cokernel, while the relative dimension of a map is the dimension of the kernel. These are dual in that the inclusion of a subspace of codimension k dualizes to yield a quotient map of relative dimension k, and conversely. The additivity of codimension under intersection corresponds to the additivity of relative dimension in a fiber product. Just as codimension is mostly used for injective maps, relative dimension is mostly used for surjective maps. (Wikipedia).

Absolute versus relative measurements in geometry | Rational Geometry Math Foundations 134

In science and ordinary life, the distinction between absolute and relative measurements is very useful. It turns out that in mathematics this is also an important distinction. We must be prepared that some aspects of mathematics are more naturally measured relatively, rather than absolute

Johan de Jong - Affineness of the complement of the ramification locus - WAGON

The purpose of this talk is to encourage people to think about purity questions. We will discuss a strong form of purity for morphisms of relative dimension 0. For morphisms of relative dimension 1 we relate the purity question to one on purity for families of curves.

The Dark Side of Time

Is space-time fragmented, segmented into quantized bits of information, or causal sets? Or is space-time smooth and continuous, with curves, bends, and warps; just as Einstein had predicted? Is what we call space-time even part of objective reality or is it just a mathematical construct
