释义

affine space


Definition.

Let K be a field and let n be a positive integer. In algebraic geometryMathworldPlanetmathPlanetmath we define affine spaceMathworldPlanetmath (or affine n-space) to be the set

{(k1,,kn):kiK}.

Affine space is usually denoted by Kn or An (or An(K) if we want to emphasize the field of definition).

In Algebraic Geometry, we consider affine space as a topological space, with the usual Zariski topologyMathworldPlanetmath (see also algebraic setMathworldPlanetmath, affine varietyMathworldPlanetmath). The polynomialsPlanetmathPlanetmath in the ring K[x1,,xn] are regarded as functions (algebraic functionsMathworldPlanetmath) on 𝔸n(K). “Gluing” several copies of affine space one obtains a projective space.

Lemma.

If K is algebraically closedMathworldPlanetmath, affine space An(K) is an irreduciblePlanetmathPlanetmath algebraic variety.
