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:
“Time has no divisions to mark its passage, there is never a thunderstorm or blare of trumpets to announce the beginning of a new month or year. Even when a new century begins it is only we mortals who ring bells and fire off pistols.”
—Thomas Mann (1875–1955)
