名詞

birational geometry (uncountable)

1. (algebraic geometry) A field of algebraic geometry in which the aim is to determine under what conditions two algebraic varieties are isomorphic outside lower-dimensional subsets.

   Birational geometry amounts to the study of mappings given by rational functions rather than polynomials.

   • 2008, Paltin Ionescu, Birational geometry of rationally connected manifolds via quasi-lines, Ciro Ciliberto, et al., Projective Varieties with Unexpected Properties, Walter de Gruyter, page 317,

     This is, mostly, a survey of results about the birational geometry of rationally connected manifolds, using rational curves analogous to lines in ${\displaystyle \mathbb {P} ^{n}}$ (quasi-lines).

   • 2009, Claudio Bartocci, Ugo Bruzzo, Daniel Hernández Ruipérez, Fourier-Mukai and Nahm Transforms in Geometry and Mathematical Physics, Springer (Birkhäuser), Progress in Mathematics 276, page 233,

     In this chapter we offer some applications of Fourier-Mukai transforms, namely, a classification of the Fourier-Mukai partners of complex projective surfaces, some issues in birational geometry, and an approach to the McKay correspondence via Fourier-Mukai transform.
