The local ring of a node #
A node of a nodal complex curve is obtained by gluing a point p of one normalized component
to a point q of another (or of the same) component. A function near the node is a pair of
holomorphic germs, one on each branch, taking the same value at the node. This file defines the
local ring of the node in exactly this form, directly from the holomorphic stalks of the two
branches and without any hypersurface chart:
TauCeti.holomorphicStructureSheaf.nodeLocalRing I J p qis the subring ofπͺ_{X,p} Γ πͺ_{Y,q}of pairs of germs with equal values, with componentwise operations. It is the fibre product of the two stalk evaluations toβ, andnodeLocalRing.liftis its universal property.nodeLocalRing.fstandnodeLocalRing.sndrestrict a germ at the node to its two branches;nodeLocalRing.evalis the value at the node.- A germ at the node is a unit exactly when its value is nonzero (
nodeLocalRing.isUnit_iff). Hence the node ring is a local ring, its maximal ideal is the kernel of evaluation, and its residue field isβ. The branch restrictions are local homomorphisms.
The definition and these properties hold for complex manifolds of any dimension. On complex
curves a centered chart at each branch point gives the two coordinate germs
nodeLocalRing.fstCoordinate and nodeLocalRing.sndCoordinate: a coordinate of one branch,
extended by zero on the other. Their product is zero, so the node ring is not an integral
domain, and together they generate the maximal ideal
(nodeLocalRing.maximalIdeal_eq_span_coordinate). The kernel of each branch restriction is
generated by the coordinate of the other branch. These are the relations xy = 0 and
πͺ = (x, y) of the analytic local ring β{x, y}/(xy) of the plane node, here derived from
the branch description.
The fibre product of the two stalk evaluations is the concrete form of the pullback in
CommRingCat described by Mathlib's CommRingCat.pullbackCone.
