   Some Initial Definitions
            ◮ Let k be a fixed algebraically closed field
            ◮                                                         n
                 An affine n-space over k, denoted ❆ , is the set of all n-tuples
                 of elements of k.
            ◮                                   n
                 P =(a ,···,a ) ∈ ❆ with a ∈ k is called a point, and the a
                           1          n                     i                                              i
                 are called the coordinates of P.
            ◮ A=k[x ,···,x ] is the polynomial ring in n variables over k.
                            1          n
                                                                                      n
            ◮ We interpret an element f ∈ A as a function ❆ → k.
                 Given T ⊆ A, the zero set of T is
                                                      n
                              Z(T)={P ∈❆ :f(P)=0 for all f ∈ T}.

   Algebraic Sets and Zariski Topology
            ◮                            n
                 Asubset Y ⊆ ❆ is an algebraic set if there exists a subset
            ◮ T ⊆Asuch that Y =Z(T).
                 Proposition 1.1:
                   1. The union of two algebraic sets is an algebraic set.
                   2. The intersection of any family of algebraic subsets is an
                        algebraic set.
                   3. The empty set and whole space are algebraic sets.
            ◮                                                     n
                 Define the Zariski Topology on ❆ by taking the open subsets
                 to be the complements of the algebraic sets. By the
                 proposition, this is a topology.

   Irreducibility
            ◮ A nonempty subset Y of a topological space X is irreducible if
                 it cannot be expressed as the union Y = Y1 ∪ Y2 of two
                 closed, proper subsets of Y.
            ◮                                          1
                 Example: the affine line ❆ is irreducible
                   ◮ Every ideal in A = k[x] is principle (can show using the
                        remainder theorem), so every algebraic set is the set of zeros
                        of a single polynomial.
                   ◮ Since k is algebraically closed, every nonzero polynomial can be
                   ◮ written as f(x) = c(x −a1)···(x −an) with c,a1,···,an ∈ k.
                        Thus, Z(f) = {a ,···,a }.
                                              1         n
                   ◮ 1
                        ❆ is irreducible, because its only proper closed subsets are
                        finite, yet it is infinite (since k is infinite).
            ◮ Now we can define the affine variety as an irreducible closed
                                  n
                 subset of ❆ (with the induced topology).
