Jouanolou's trick

title: Jouanolou's trick
text: In algebraic geometry, Jouanolou's trick is a theorem that asserts, for an algebraic variety X, the existence of a surjection with affine fibers from an affine variety W to X. The variety W is therefore homotopy-equivalent to X, but it has the technically advantageous property of being affine. Jouanolou's original statement of the theorem required that X be quasi-projective over an affine scheme, but this has since been considerably weakened.
