Terminology for the image of the diagonal embedding.
Let $X$ be a topological space equipped with maps into two spaces $\bar X_1$ and $\bar X_2$. Is there a standard notation/terminology for the closure $\bar X$ in $\bar X_1 \times \bar X_2$ of the dia …

Algebraic curve cannot suddenly end
Following the idea of Felipe Voloch, I try to give a simple proof based on Puiseux series expansion. Let $C$ be a real algebraic curve at the origin. Look at the Puiseux series expansion (say in terms …

Is a toric variety over a field of positive characteristic complete if and only if the suppo...
The answer is yes. Fulton's proof is in fact valid positive characteristic as well. In the proof of "full support $\Rightarrow$ completeness" he uses the valuative criterion which, as you noticed, is …

When $k(f(x), g(x)) = k(x)$? In other words, when is a given polynomial parametrization of a...
If $f, g \in k[x]$, where $k$ is a field, then $k(f, g) = k(h)$ for some rational function $h \in k(x)$ (this is a special case of Lüroth's theorem).
Question 1: Under what conditions does the above h …
