Studying algebraic varieties in positive characteristic
The Kawakami Lab studies algebraic varieties in positive characteristic, in the field of algebraic geometry.
The lab studies algebraic varieties from both local and global perspectives.
The lab is particularly interested in methods that use Frobenius morphisms and Cartier operators.
Key terms
- Algebraic variety
- A geometric object formed as the set of solutions to polynomial equations.
- Positive characteristic
- A property of number systems in which adding 1 to itself a certain prime number of times gives 0. Arithmetic with remainders after division by a prime is one example.
- Frobenius morphism
- A map that raises each coordinate to the p-th power, where p is the prime equal to the characteristic. It is a tool unique to the world of positive characteristic.
