  2. Intersection theory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Intersection_theory

    In mathematics, intersection theory is one of the main branches of algebraic geometry, where it gives information about the intersection of two subvarieties of a given variety. [1] The theory for varieties is older, with roots in Bézout's theorem on curves and elimination theory. On the other hand, the topological theory more quickly reached a ...

    In set theory, the intersection of two sets and , denoted by , [1] is the set containing all elements of that also belong to or equivalently, all elements of that also belong to . [2] Notation and terminology

  4. Intersectionality - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Intersectionality

    Before Crenshaw coined her definition of intersectionality, there was a debate on what these societal categories were. The once definite borders between the categories of gender, race, and class have instead fused into a multidimensional intersection of "race" that now includes religion, sexuality, ethnicities, etc.

  5. Intersection number - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Intersection_number

    The definition given below is for the intersection number of divisors on a nonsingular variety X. 1. The only intersection number that can be calculated directly from the definition is the intersection of hypersurfaces (subvarieties of X of codimension one) that are in general position at x.

  6. Chow group - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chow_group

    Fulton and MacPherson extended the Chow ring to singular varieties by defining the "operational Chow ring" and more generally a bivariant theory associated to any morphism of schemes. [13] A bivariant theory is a pair of covariant and contravariant functors that assign to a map a group and a ring respectively.

    The intersection (red) of two disks (white and red with black boundaries). The circle (black) intersects the line (purple) in two points (red). The disk (yellow) intersects the line in the line segment between the two red points. The intersection of D and E is shown in grayish purple. The intersection of A with any of B, C, D, or E is the empty ...
