Blueprints -- towards absolute arithmetic?

From MaRDI portal




Abstract: One of the driving motivations to develop F1-geometry is the hope to translate Weil's proof of the Riemann hypothesis from positive characteristics to number fields, which might result in a proof of the classical Riemann hypothesis. The underlying idea is that the spectrum of should find an interpretation as a curve over F1, which has a completion analogous to a curve over a finite field. The hope is that intersection theory for divisors on the arithmetic surface will allow to mimic Weil's proof. It turns out that it is possible to define an object from the viewpoint of blueprints that has certain properties, which come close to the properties of its analogs in positive characteristic. This shall be explained in the following note, which is a summary of a talk given at the Max Planck Institute in March, 2012.
