Pure-dimensional topological spaces #
A topological space is pure-dimensional of dimension d when every irreducible component has
Krull dimension d. Empty spaces are pure-dimensional of every dimension, since they have no
irreducible components. Thus empty fibres automatically satisfy the pure-dimensional component
condition in the definition of a morphism of pure relative dimension.
The property is invariant under homeomorphisms. A discrete space is pure-dimensional of dimension zero: every irreducible component is nonempty and discrete, hence has Krull dimension zero.
Pure dimension is local on spaces in which every nonempty open part Z ∩ U of an irreducible
component Z has the Krull dimension of Z, such as schemes locally of finite type over a field:
the irreducible components of an open subspace are the traces of the components of the whole
space that meet it. Without that hypothesis this fails: the spectrum of a discrete valuation ring
is irreducible of dimension one, while its generic point is an open subspace of dimension zero.

Let X be a space in which every nonempty open part of an irreducible component has the
Krull dimension of the component. If X is pure-dimensional, then so is every open subspace.
Let X be a space in which every nonempty open part of an irreducible component has the
Krull dimension of the component. Given open embeddings whose ranges cover X, the space X is
pure-dimensional exactly when each of their domains is.
