Abstract: | TextWe show that the theory of hyperrings, due to M. Krasner, supplies a perfect framework to understand the algebraic structure of the adèle class space HK=AK/K× of a global field K. After promoting F1 to a hyperfield K, we prove that a hyperring of the form R/G (where R is a ring and G⊂R× is a subgroup of its multiplicative group) is a hyperring extension of K if and only if G∪{0} is a subfield of R. This result applies to the adèle class space which thus inherits the structure of a hyperring extension HK of K. We begin to investigate the content of an algebraic geometry over K. The category of commutative hyperring extensions of K is inclusive of: commutative algebras over fields with semi-linear homomorphisms, abelian groups with injective homomorphisms and a rather exotic land comprising homogeneous non-Desarguesian planes. Finally, we show that for a global field K of positive characteristic, the groupoid of the prime elements of the hyperring HK is canonically and equivariantly isomorphic to the groupoid of the loops of the maximal abelian cover of the curve associated to the global field K.VideoFor a video summary of this paper, please click here or visit http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3LSKD_PfJyc. |
