theorem maximal_height_eq_of_field (k : Type u_1) [Field k] (n : ) (M : Ideal (MvPolynomial (Fin n) k)) :
M.IsMaximalM.height = n

Helper: in the polynomial ring k[x_1, …, x_n] over a field, every maximal ideal has height exactly n.

theorem hypersurface_dim_n_minus_one (k : Type u_1) [Field k] (n : ) (hn : 0 < n) (f : MvPolynomial (Fin n) k) (hf0 : f 0) (hfu : ¬IsUnit f) :

Hypersurface dimension (Cor 10, Lec 5): a hypersurface in A^n cut out by a single nonzero non-unit polynomial f has dimension n − 1.
