If B is an integrally closed domain with fraction field K and A is the integral
closure of B in K, then A is algebra-isomorphic to B (so a finite birational map
over a normal base is an isomorphism).
Instances For
Under the same hypotheses as finite_birational_normal_algEquiv, the structure map
B → A is bijective.
The normalization of an integrally closed domain A (its integral closure in its
fraction field) is A itself.
Instances For
Proposition 28 (finiteness part): For a finitely generated k-algebra domain A with
fraction field K and a finite field extension L/K, the integral closure of A in L
is finite over A.
Proposition 28 (finite-type part): The integral closure of A in L remains of finite
type over the base field k.
Proposition 28 (normality part): The integral closure of A in a finite extension L
is itself integrally closed.
The structure map A → integralClosure A L is injective, so normalization does not
collapse the base.
