In this paper, we introduce the category of blueprints, which is a category of algebraic objects that include both commutative (semi)rings and commutative monoids. This generalization allows a simultaneous treatment of ideals resp.\…
This paper is dedicated to a problem raised by Jacquet Tits in 1956: the Weyl group of a Chevalley group should find an interpretation as a group over what is nowadays called $\mathbb{F}_1$, \emph{the field with one element}. Based on Part…
This paper gives an overview of the various approaches towards F_1-geometry. In a first part, we review all known theories in literature so far, which are: Deitmar's F_1-schemes, To\"en and Vaqui\'e's F_1-schemes, Haran's F-schemes, Durov's…
This text serves as an introduction to $\mathbb{F}_1$-geometry for the general mathematician. We explain the initial motivations for $\mathbb{F}_1$-geometry in detail, provide an overview of the different approaches to $\mathbb{F}_1$ and…
In this note, we generalize the Proj-construction from usual schemes to blue schemes. This yields the definition of projective space and projective varieties over a blueprint. In particular, it is possible to descend closed subvarieties of…
One of the driving motivations to develop $\F_1$-geometry is the hope to translate Weil's proof of the Riemann hypothesis from positive characteristics to number fields, which might result in a proof of the classical Riemann hypothesis. The…
Over the past two decades several different approaches to defining a geometry over ${\mathbb F}_1$ have been proposed. In this paper, relying on To\"en and Vaqui\'e's formalism, we investigate a new category…
Geometry over non--existent "field with one element" $F_1$ conceived by Jacques Tits [Ti] half a century ago recently found an incarnation, in at least two related but different guises. In this paper I analyze the crucial role of roots of…
Remarks in a paper by Jacques Tits from 1956 led to a philosophy how a theory of split reductive groups over $\F_1$, the so-called field with one element, should look like. Namely, every split reductive group over $\Z$ should descend to…
This text is dedicated to Jacques Tits's ideas on geometry over F1, the field with one element. In a first part, we explain how thin Tits geometries surface as rational point sets over the Krasner hyperfield, which links these ideas to…
This paper is devoted to the open problem in $\mathbb{F}_1$-geometry of developing $K$-theory for $\mathbb{F}_1$-schemes. We provide all necessary facts from the theory of monoid actions on pointed sets and we introduce sheaves for…
A new picture of Quantum Mechanics based on the theory of groupoids is presented. This picture provides the mathematical background for Schwinger's algebra of selective measurements and helps to understand its scope and eventual…
This paper develops a theory of analytic geometry over the field with one element. The approach used is the analytic counter-part of the Toen-Vaquie theory of schemes over F_1, i.e. the base category relative to which we work out our theory…
We develop and study a generalization of commutative rings called bands, along with the corresponding geometric theory of band schemes. Bands generalize both hyperrings, in the sense of Krasner, and partial fields in the sense of Semple and…
The existence of a quantum field theory over the "field with one element" was first addressed in 2012 by Bejleri and Marcolli, where it was shown that wonderful compactifications of the graph configuration spaces that appear in the…
There is no field with only one element, yet there is a well-defined notion of what projective geometry over such a field means. This notion is familiar to experts and plays an interesting role behind the scenes in combinatorics and…
Using the approach of Kurokawa, Ochiai, and Wakayama to 'absolute mathematics' we define a corresponding notion of schemes.
The symmetry SU(2) and its geometric Bloch Sphere rendering are familiar for a qubit (spin-1/2) but extension of symmetries and geometries have been investigated far less for multiple qubits, even just a pair of them, that are central to…
We refine the notion of variety over the "field with one element" developed by C. Soul\'e by introducing a grading in the associated functor to the category of sets, and show that this notion becomes compatible with the geometric viewpoint…
Much of arithmetic geometry is concerned with the study of principal bundles. They occur prominently in the arithmetic of elliptic curves and, more recently, in the study of the Diophantine geometry of curves of higher genus. In particular,…
