Multiplication-by-X operator on the quotient k[X][Y]/⟨f, g⟩, viewed as a k-linear
endomorphism.
Instances For
Multiplication-by-Y operator (i.e. by C X in k[X][Y]) on the quotient
k[X][Y]/⟨f, g⟩, viewed as a k-linear endomorphism.
Instances For
Local intersection multiplicity of the affine plane curves f = 0 and g = 0 at the
point (a, b), defined as the dimension of the simultaneous generalised eigenspace of the
multiplication-by-X and multiplication-by-Y operators with eigenvalues a and b.
Instances For
Total intersection number of f and g, equal to the k-dimension of the quotient
k[X][Y]/⟨f, g⟩. Bezout's theorem identifies this with deg(f) · deg(g).
Instances For
Artinian local-global decomposition: the total intersection number decomposes as a finite sum of local intersection multiplicities over the points contributing nonzero multiplicity.
The total intersection number can equivalently be computed as the k-dimension of the
quotient by the supremum of the principal ideals ⟨f⟩ and ⟨g⟩.
Bezout's theorem for an irreducible monic g against a polynomial of the form C p:
the total intersection number equals deg(g) · deg(p).
Additivity of intersection with a product: the k-dimension of the quotient by f₁ · f₂
in AdjoinRoot g splits as the sum of the dimensions for f₁ and f₂.
The k-dimension of the quotient AdjoinRoot g / ⟨p⟩ depends only on the degree of p.
Degree formula: dim_k (AdjoinRoot g / ⟨p⟩) = deg(g) · deg(p).
Bezout's theorem (final packaging): for an irreducible monic g and p ∈ k[X] nonzero
in the quotient, the total intersection number of g and C p is deg(g) · deg(p).
