Algebraic Geometry Over Hyperrings
arXiv:1512.04837
Abstract
We develop basic notions and methods of algebraic geometry over the algebraic objects called hyperrings. Roughly speaking, hyperrings generalize rings in such a way that an addition is `multi-valued'. This paper largely consisits of two parts; algebraic aspects and geometric aspects of hyperrings. We first investigate several technical algebraic properties of a hyperring. In the second part, we begin by giving another interpretation of a tropical variety as an algebraic set over the hyperfield which canonically arises from a totally ordered semifield. Then we define a notion of an integral hyperring scheme and prove that for any integral affine hyperring scheme .
