The number of points in the intersection of divisors (cf. Divisor) in an
-dimensional algebraic variety with allowance for the multiplicities of these points. More precisely, let
be an
-dimensional non-singular algebraic variety over a field
, and let
be effective divisors in
that intersect in a finite number of points. The local index (or multiplicity) of intersection of these divisors at a point
is the integer
![]() |
where is the local equation for the divisor
in the local ring
. In the complex case, the local index coincides with the residue of the form
, and also with the degree of the germ of the mapping (cf. Degree of a mapping)
![]() |
The global intersection index is the sum of the local indices over all points of the intersection
. If this intersection is not empty, then
.
