Abstract: There are many examples of the fact that dimension and codimension behave somewhat counterintuitively. In EGA it is stated that a topological space is equidimensional, equicodimensional and catenary if and only if every maximal chain of irreducible closed subsets has the same length. We construct examples that show that this is not even true for the spectrum of a Noetherian ring. This gives rise to two notions of biequidimensionality, and we show how these relate to the dimension formula and the existence of a codimension function.

Review text

The article is devoted to algebraic geometry related with a Noetherian ring. Dimension and codimension functions are studied, examples are given. Chains of irreducible closed subsets are investigated. Specific features of algebraic schemes over a ring containing an infinite set of elements are elucidated. In particular, the spectrum of the Noetherian ring is considered and topology is used.
