Bases: sage.schemes.generic.scheme.AffineScheme
The spectrum of a commutative ring, as a scheme.
Note
Calling Spec(R) twice produces two distinct (but equal) schemes, which is important for gluing to construct more general schemes.
INPUT:
EXAMPLES:
sage: Spec(QQ)
Spectrum of Rational Field
sage: Spec(PolynomialRing(QQ, 'x'))
Spectrum of Univariate Polynomial Ring in x over Rational Field
sage: Spec(PolynomialRing(QQ, 'x', 3))
Spectrum of Multivariate Polynomial Ring in x0, x1, x2 over Rational Field
sage: X = Spec(PolynomialRing(GF(49,'a'), 3, 'x')); X
Spectrum of Multivariate Polynomial Ring in x0, x1, x2 over Finite Field in a of size 7^2
sage: TestSuite(X).run(skip = ["_test_an_element", "_test_elements",
... "_test_some_elements"])
sage: A = Spec(ZZ); B = Spec(ZZ)
sage: A is B
False
sage: A == B
True
A TypeError is raised if the input is not a commutative ring:
sage: Spec(5)
Traceback (most recent call last):
...
TypeError: R (=5) must be a commutative ring
sage: Spec(FreeAlgebra(QQ,2, 'x'))
Traceback (most recent call last):
...
TypeError: R (=Free Algebra on 2 generators (x0, x1) over
Rational Field) must be a commutative ring
