  2. Rational mapping - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rational_mapping

    Formally, a rational map: between two varieties is an equivalence class of pairs (,) in which is a morphism of varieties from a non-empty open set to , and two such pairs (,) and (′ ′, ′) are considered equivalent if and ′ ′ coincide on the intersection ′ (this is, in particular, vacuously true if the intersection is empty, but since is assumed irreducible, this is impossible).

    A birational map from X to Y is a rational map f : X ⇢ Y such that there is a rational map Y ⇢ X inverse to f.A birational map induces an isomorphism from a nonempty open subset of X to a nonempty open subset of Y, and vice versa: an isomorphism between nonempty open subsets of X, Y by definition gives a birational map f : X ⇢ Y.

    If X is a smooth complete curve (for example, P 1) and if f is a rational map from X to a projective space P m, then f is a regular map X → P m. [5] In particular, when X is a smooth complete curve, any rational function on X may be viewed as a morphism X → P 1 and, conversely, such a morphism as a rational function on X.

  5. Animal cognition - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Animal_cognition

    Cognitive maps Some animals appear to construct a cognitive map of their surroundings, meaning that they acquire and use information that enables them to compute how far and in what direction to go to get from one location to another. Such a map-like representation is thought to be used, for example, when an animal goes directly from one food ...

  6. Rational variety - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rational_variety

    Lüroth's problem concerns subextensions L of K(X), the rational functions in the single indeterminate X. Any such field is either equal to K or is also rational, i.e. L = K(F) for some rational function F. In geometrical terms this states that a non-constant rational map from the projective line to a curve C can only occur when C also has genus 0.

    Crying online is a vast internet genre spanning spontaneous shows of emotion, self-deprecating memes and carefully curated suffering, and the reasons people express these feelings online vary.

  8. Canonical bundle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Canonical_bundle

    The image of the 1-canonical map is called a canonical curve. A canonical curve of genus g always sits in a projective space of dimension g − 1. [3] When C is a hyperelliptic curve, the canonical curve is a rational normal curve, and C a double cover of its canonical curve. For example if P is a polynomial of degree 6 (without repeated roots ...

  9. Morphism of schemes - Wikipedia

    For example, Spec k[x] and Spec k(x) and have the same function field (namely, k(x)) but there is no rational map from the former to the latter. However, it is true that any inclusion of function fields of algebraic varieties induces a dominant rational map (see morphism of algebraic varieties#Properties .)
