Basket of Fruit (Caravaggio) Basket of Fruit (Caravaggio) Basket of Fruit (c.1599) is a still life painting by the Italian Baroque master Michelangelo Merisi da Caravaggio (1571–1610), which hangs in the Biblioteca Ambrosiana (Ambrosian Library), Milan. It shows a wicker basket perched on the edge of a ledge. The basket contains a selection of summer fruit: ... a good-sized, light-red peach attached to a stem with wormholes in the leaf resembling damage by oriental fruit moth (Orthosia hibisci). Beneath it is a single bicolored apple, shown from a stem perspective with two insect entry holes, probably codling moth, one of which shows secondary rot
Abelian variety of CM-type CM-type is a description of the action of a (maximal) commutative subring "L" of End("A") on the holomorphic tangent space of "A" at the identity element. Spectral theory of a simple kind applies, to show that "L" acts via a basis of eigenvectors; in other words "L" has an action that is via diagonal matrices on the holomorphic vector fields on "A". In the simple case, where "L" is itself a number field rather than a product of some number of fields, the CM-type is then a list of complex embeddings of "L". There are 2"d" of those, occurring in
