Algebraic Topology
Coherent sheaves are a special type of sheaf that captures the idea of locally finitely generated modules over a ring. They are essential in algebraic geometry as they allow for the study of geometric objects through their algebraic properties, providing a way to relate local data to global structures. Coherent sheaves facilitate the analysis of varieties by enabling the use of tools from commutative algebra and homological algebra.
congrats on reading the definition of Coherent Sheaves. now let's actually learn it.
