"Gluing constructions and separated schemes"
In this talk, we explain how one can obtain new schemes by gluing together a collection of schemes. This is known as the "gluing construction", which can produce for example projective n-space over a given ring. We also introduce the notion of a separated scheme and explain its relation to Hausdorffness.
