Mixed volume and an analogue of intersection theory of divisors for non-complete varieties
Kiumars Kaveh ; A. G. Khovanskii ;
Date 2 Dec 2008
AbstractLet K(X) be the collection of all finite dimensional subspaces of rational functions on a complex n-dimensional variety X. For any n-tuple L_1, ..., L_n in K(X), we define an intersection index {L_1,...,L_n} as the number of solutions in X of a system of equations f_1 = ... = f_n = 0 where f_i is a generic function from the space L_i. In counting the solutions, we neglect solutions x at which all the functions in some space L_i vanish as well as solutions at which at least one function from some space L_i has a pole. The set K(X) is a commutative semi-group with respect to a natural multiplication. The intersection index {L_1,..., L_n} is multi-linear with respect to this multiplication and can be extended to the Grothendieck group of K(X). We hence obtain an analogue of the intersection theory of divisors for a (possibly) non-complete variety X. We show that the intersection index enjoys all the main properties of the mixed volume of convex bodies. This paper was inspired by Bernstein-Kushnirenko theorem from the theory of Newton polyhedra.
