The Krull dimension of the (scheme-theoretic) fiber of Spec A → Spec B over a prime
q ∈ Spec B, computed as the Krull dimension of A / qA.
Instances For
The points in the image of Spec A → Spec B whose fiber has dimension at least d.
Instances For
The set of image points with fiber dimension ≥ d is the intersection of the image of
Spec A → Spec B with the upper-level set fiberDimGe d.
Chevalley's theorem (Theorem 21.2, part 1): For a finite-type morphism between Noetherian
schemes, the image of Spec A → Spec B is a constructible subset.
Upper-semicontinuity of fiber dimension: the locus of points in Spec B where the fiber
of a dominant finite-type morphism has dimension at least d is closed.
Chevalley's theorem (Theorem 21.2, part 2): The locus in the image of a dominant
finite-type morphism where the fiber has dimension at least d is closed in the image.
Chevalley's theorem (Theorem 21.2, part 3): For a dominant finite-type morphism, there is
a nonempty basic open of the base on which the morphism is surjective and the dimension
formula dim(fiber) + dim B = dim A holds.
