There are deep connections between algebraic (in fact, scheme-theoretic) notions of smoothness and regularity.
Definition
Let be a Noetherian local ring with maximal ideal Failed to parse (unknown function "\mathfrac"): {\displaystyle \mathfrac{m}} and residual field Failed to parse (unknown function "\mathfrac"): {\displaystyle k=A/\mathfrac{m}} . The following conditions are equivalent:
- The Krull dimension of is equal to the dimension of Failed to parse (unknown function "\mathfrac"): {\displaystyle \mathfrac{m}/\mathfrac{m}^2} as a -vector space.
