Spectrum of A Ring

Spectrum Of A Ring

In abstract algebra and algebraic geometry, the spectrum of a commutative ring R, denoted by Spec(R), is the set of all proper prime ideals of R. It is commonly augmented with the Zariski topology and with a structure sheaf, turning it into a locally ringed space.

Famous quotes containing the word ring:

    When the merry bells ring round,
    And the jocund rebecks sound
    To many a youth and many a maid,
    Dancing in the chequered shade;
    And young and old come forth to play
    On a sunshine holiday,
    John Milton (1608–1674)
