Computational Algebraic Geometry
A function field is a field that consists of functions defined on a variety, similar to how rational numbers are a field of numbers. These fields provide a framework for studying geometric properties of varieties by allowing one to perform algebraic operations on functions. In algebraic geometry, function fields are essential in understanding rational maps between varieties and also play a key role in establishing the connections made in foundational theorems.
