[parent] Néron-Severi group (Definition)
Definition 1   Let $S$ be a surface (an algebraic variety of dimenion $2$ ) defined over an algebraically closed field $k$ . The Néron-Severi group of $S$ , denoted by $\operatorname{NS}(S)$ , is the group of Weil divisors on $S$ modulo algebraic equivalence of divisors (see parent entry).
Theorem 1 (Néron, Severi)   The Néron-Severi group of a surface is a finitely generated abelian group.
