It is also worth noting that the topology is compact. Pura 23:19, 2 January 2006 (UTC)

Some examples would be nice e.g. Spec Z, Spec C[t] Jakob.scholbach 04:44, 13 March 2007 (UTC) I added them. Jakob.scholbach 20:27, 15 March 2007 (UTC)

Could someone add a section about constructible topology please. Its not really my area, but it crops up in Model Theory, as the topology on type spaces. Thehalfone 07:08, 10 July 2007 (UTC)

[edit] References

"Just as Spec replaces affine varieties, the Proj construction replaces projective varieties in modern algebraic geometry. Just as in the classical case, to move from the affine to the projective definition we need only replace "ideal" by "homogeneous ideal", though there is a complication involving the "irrelevant maximal ideal" which is discussed in the cited article."

Except that this Wikipedia article cites no reference... Copy/paste/delete issue?

Actually, this article definitely needs references. David.Monniaux (talk) 11:59, 17 July 2008 (UTC)

I am not an authority, but comparing it to some books I am reading right now, the content is correct. I might add references in the future. 87.167.59.120 (talk) 20:03, 25 March 2009 (UTC)
