Abstract Variety Maps

Types

The OSCAR type for abstract variety maps is AbstractVarietyMap.

Constructors

mapFunction
map(X::AbstractVariety, Y::AbstractVariety, fˣ::Vector, fₓ = nothing; inclusion::Bool = false, symbol::String = "x")

Return an abstract variety map $f:X \rightarrow Y$ by specifying the pullbacks of the generators of the Chow ring $N^*(Y)_{\mathbb Q}.$ If needed, also specify the pushforward map $N^*(X)_{\mathbb Q} \rightarrow N^*(Y)_{\mathbb Q}.$

Note

The pullback is relatively easy to describe since it is functorial, while the pushforward is usually more complicated. In some cases, the pushforward of an element $x \in N^*(X)_{\mathbb Q}$ can be automatically computed via pullback. Specifically, the projection formula tells us that

\[f_\ast(f^\ast(y)\cdot x) = f_\ast(x)\cdot y \;\text{ for all }\; x\in N^*(X)_{\mathbb Q}, y\in N^*(Y)_{\mathbb Q}.\]

Since we are working with numerical equivalence, to determine $f_\ast(x)$, it suffices to know all its intersection numbers, which can readily be computed via pullback, provided that all classes in $N^*(Y)_{\mathbb Q}$ are known (or at least those classes having non-zero intersection numbers with $f_\ast(x)$). This is the case in the following situations:

  • When $Y$ is a point or a curve.
  • When all classes in $N^*(Y)_{\mathbb Q}$ are known.
  • When :alg is passed as the fourth argument. This can be done when we are certain that the computed pushforward is correct, even though not all classes in $N^*(X)_{\mathbb Q}$ are known.

In the other cases, if no pushforward map has been specified, a warning will be given when trying to do pushforward.

Note

In the case of an inclusion X $\hookrightarrow$ Y where the class of X in $N^*(Y)_{\mathbb Q}$ is not known, use the argument extend_inclusion = true. Then, a modified version of Y will be created, with extra classes added so that one can pushforward all classes on X. See the subsection Example: Cubic fourfolds of the documentation for an example.

 l

julia> P8 = abstract_projective_space(8)

julia> h = gens(P8)[1]

julia> Se = map(P2xP2, P8, [k+l]) # Segre embedding
