The first purpose of schemes theory is the geometrical study of solutions of algebraic systems of equations, not only over the real/complex numbers, but also over integer numbers (and more generally over any commutative ring with 1). It was finalized by Alexandre Grothendieck, during the 1950s and the 1960s.

Subschemes of the affine line over a domain

Let $R$ be a domain with affine spectrum $S$ and consider the scheme $X=\mathbb A^1_R=\operatorname {Spec}R[T] $ over $S$. Let $P\subset R[T]$ be an ideal with $P\cap R=0$ and let $Y\subset X$ be the …

What are the sections of an ideal sheaf on a scheme?

Suppose $X$ is a scheme and $f_1,...,f_n\in \Gamma(X,\mathcal O)$ are global sections. One often reads about the ideal sheaf $\mathcal I=\mathcal (f_1,...,f_n)\subset \mathcal O$, but I have never see …

On the definition of a principal ideal sheaf

In his book Algebraic Geometry and Arithmetic Curves Qing Liu claims in Exercise 3.4, page 56, the following for a scheme $X$ and a global function $f\in \mathcal O_X(X)$: "The map $U\mapsto f\vert _ …
