In mathematics , a natural number a is a unitary divisor of a number b if a is a divisor of b and if a and math frac b a math are coprime , having no common factor other than 1. Thus, 5 is a unitary divisor of 60, because 5 and math frac 60 5 12 math have only 1 as a common factor, while 6 is a divisor but not a unitary divisor of 60, as 6 and math frac 60 6 10 math have a common factor other than 1, namely 2. 1 is a unitary divisor of every natural number. Equivalently, a given divisor a of b is a unitary divisor iff every prime factor of a has the same multiplicity mathematics multiplicity in a as it has in b .

The Dow Jones Industrial Average DJIA is a price weighted index that is calculated by dividing the sum of the prices of the 30 component stocks Dow Jones Industrial Average components by a number called the DJIA Divisor or Dow Divisor . The index divisor is updated periodically and adjusted to offset the effect of stock split s, bonus issues, dividend payouts or any change in the component stocks included in the DJIA. This is done in order to keep the index value consistent. The current value of the Dow Divisor is 0.132129493 . Every 1 change in price in a stock within the average, results in a 7.57 1 0.132129493 change in the DJIA. The present divisor, after many adjustments, is less than one meaning the index is actually larger than the sum of the prices of the components . That is math text DJIA sum p over d math where p are the prices of the component stocks and d is the Dow Divisor . Events like stock splits or changes in the list of the companies composing the index alter the sum of the component prices.

In mathematics , specifically algebraic geometry , an exceptional divisor for a regular map algebraic geometry regular map math f X rightarrow Y math of varieties is a kind of large subvariety of math X math which is crushed by math f math , in a certain definite sense. More strictly, f has an associated exceptional locus which describes how it identifies nearby points in codimension one, and the exceptional divisor is an appropriate algebraic construction whose support is the exceptional locus. The same ideas can be found in the theory of holomorphic mappings of complex manifold s. More precisely, suppose that math f X rightarrow Y math is a regular map of varieties which is birational that is, it is an isomorphism between open subsets of math X math and math Y math . A codimension 1 subvariety math Z subset X math is said to be exceptional if math f Z math has codimension at least 2 as a subvariety of math Y math . One may then define the exceptional divisor of math f math to be math sum i Z i in Div X , math where the sum is over all exceptional subvarieties of math f math , and is an element of the group of Divisor algebraic geometry Weil divisors on math X math . Consideration of exceptional divisors is crucial in birational geometry an elementary result see for instance Shafarevich, II.4.4 shows that any birational regular map that is not an isomorphism has an exceptional divisor. A particularly important example is the Blowing up blowup math sigma tilde X rightarrow X math of a subvariety math W subset X math in this case the exceptional divisor is exactly the preimage of math W math .

In mathematics , the theta divisor is the divisor algebraic geometry divisor in the sense of algebraic geometry defined on an abelian variety A over the complex numbers and principally polarized by the zero locus of the associated Riemann theta function . It is therefore an algebraic subvariety of A of dimension dim A &minus 1. Classical theory Classical results of Bernhard Riemann describe in another way, in the case that A is the Jacobian variety J of an algebraic curve compact Riemann surface C . There is, for a choice of base point P on C , a standard mapping of C to J , by means of the interpretation of J as the linear equivalence classes of divisors on C of degree 0. That is, Q on C maps to the class of Q &minus P . Then since J is an algebraic group , C may be added to itself k times on J , giving rise to subvarieties W sub k sub . If g is the genus mathematics genus of C , Riemann proved that is a translate on J of W sub g &minus 1 sub . He also described which points on W sub g &minus 1 sub are non singular they correspond to the effective divisors D of degree g &minus 1 with no associated meromorphic functions other than constants. In more classical language, these D do not move in a linear system of divisors on C , in the sense that they do not dominate the polar divisor of a non constant function. Riemann further proved the Riemann singularity theorem , identifying the multiplicity of a point p class D on W sub g &minus 1 sub as the number of independent meromorphic functions with pole divisor dominated by D, or equivalently as h sup 0 sup O D , the number of independent global section s of the holomorphic line bundle associated to D as Cartier divisor on C .

In mathematics , in the theory of algebraic curve s, certain divisor on an algebraic curve divisors on a curve C are particular, in the sense of determining more compatible functions than would be predicted. These are the special divisors . In classical language, they move on the curve in a larger linear system of divisors . The condition to be a special divisor D can be formulated in sheaf cohomology terms, as the non vanishing of the H sup 1 sup cohomology of the sheaf of the sections of the invertible sheaf or line bundle associated to D . This means that, by the Riemann Roch theorem , the H sup 0 sup cohomology or space of holomorphic sections is larger than expected. Alternatively, by Serre duality , the condition is that there exist holomorphic differential s with divisor &minus D on the curve. Brill Noether theory Brill Noether theory in algebraic geometry is the theory of special divisors on generic algebraic curves. It is of interest mainly in the case of genus mathematics genus g &ge 3. In conceptual terms, for g given, the moduli space for curves of genus g should contain an open, dense subset parametrizing those curves with the minimum in the way of special divisors. The point of the theory is to count constants , for those curves to predict the dimension of the space of special divisors up to linear equivalence of a given degree d , as a function of g , that must be present on a curve of that genus. The theory was stated by the German geometers Alexander von Brill and Max Noether in harvtxt Brill Noether 1874 . A rigorous proof was first given by harvtxt Griffiths Harris 1980 . The basic statement can be formulated in terms of the Picard variety Pic C , and the subset of Pic C corresponding to divisor class es of divisors D , with given values n of deg D and r of l D in the notation of the Riemann Roch theorem .

If such a sequence exists, then one may assume that x sub n sub 1 for all n . If A is not commutativity commutative , then z is called a left topological divisor of zero, and one may define right topological divisors of zero similarly. Examples If A has a unit element, then the invertible elements of A form an open set open subset of A , while the non invertible elements are the complementary closed set closed subset . Any point on the boundary topology boundary between these two sets is both a left and right topological divisor of zero. In particular, any quasinilpotent element is a topological divisor of zero e.g. the Volterra operator . An operator on a Banach space math X math , which is injective , not surjective , but whose image is dense in math X math , is a left topological divisor of zero.

It frequently occurs in the study of the asymptotic behaviour of the Riemann zeta function . The various studies of the behaviour of the divisor function are sometimes called divisor problems . Definition The divisor summatory function is defined as math D x sum n le x d n sum j,k atop jk le x 1 math where math d n sigma 0 n sum j,k atop jk n 1 math is the divisor function . The divisor function counts the number of ways that the integer n can be written as a product of two integers. More generally, one defines math D k x sum n le x d k n sum mn le x d k 1 n math where d sub k sub n counts the number of ways that n can be written as a product of k numbers. This quantity can be visualized as the count of the number of lattice points fenced off by a hyperbolic surface in k dimensions.
