Math Problem Statement
Suppose A is a scheme with d classes. Since C[A ] is closed under multiplica- tion, there are constants pi,j(k) such that Ai Aj = X d k=0 pi,j(k)Ak. We call these the intersection numbers of the scheme. We see that pi,j(k)Ak = Ak ◦ (Ai Aj), from which it follows that the intersection numbers are non-negative integers. We see also that pi,j(k) = sum(Ak ◦ (Ai Aj)) v vk
tr(A T k Ai Aj) v vk . (2.3.1) We define the intersection matrices B0,...,Bd by (Bi)j,k := pi,j(k). If π denotes the relation partition of V (A ) with respect to v, then Bi = A/π.
