When pro-affine monoid schemes are group schemes

One - Dimensional Affine Group Schemes

The construction of these groups is straightforward; to an algebra B we assign the quotient R,,, G,/G,. The main effort comes in showing that these are the only possibilities. The key to this, and the basic technical idea in the paper, is the use of N&on blow-ups of group schemes over valuation rings. This process has been used before [ 1, 21 as a tool for resolving singularities, but in fact i...

Basic Theory of Affine Group Schemes

Relative Affine Schemes

1 Affine Morphisms Definition 1. Let f : X −→ Y be a morphism of schemes. Then we say f is an affine morphism or that X is affine over Y , if there is a nonempty open cover {Vα}α∈Λ of Y by open affine subsets Vα such that for every α, fVα is also affine. If X is empty (in particular if Y is empty) then f is affine. Any morphism of affine schemes is affine. Any isomorphism is affine, and the aff...

TORIC VARIETIES, MONOID SCHEMES AND cdh DESCENT

We give conditions for the Mayer-Vietoris property to hold for the algebraic K-theory of blow-up squares of toric varieties and schemes, using the theory of monoid schemes. These conditions are used to relate algebraic K-theory to topological cyclic homology in characteristic p. To achieve our goals, we develop many notions for monoid schemes based on classical algebraic geometry, such as separ...

Moduli of Affine Schemes with Reductive Group Action

For a connected reductive group G and a finite–dimensional G–module V , we study the invariant Hilbert scheme that parameterizes closed G–stable subschemes of V affording a fixed, multiplicity–finite representation of G in their coordinate ring. We construct an action on this invariant Hilbert scheme of a maximal torus T of G, together with an open T–stable subscheme admitting a good quotient. ...
