Nonnoetherian singularities and their noncommutative blowups (Q6167027): Difference between revisions

Summary: We establish a new fundamental class of varieties in nonnoetherian algebraic geometry related to the central geometry of dimer algebras. Specifically, given an affine algebraic variety \(X\) and a finite collection of non-intersecting positive dimensional algebraic sets \(Y_i \subset X\), we construct a nonnoetherian coordinate ring whose variety coincides with \(X\) except that each \(Y_i\) is identified as a distinct positive dimensional closed point. We then show that the noncommutative blowup of such a singularity is a noncommutative desingularization, in a suitable geometric sense.
