AbstractIn this article we use the theories of relative algebraic geometry and of homotopical algebraic geometry (cf. [HAGII]) to construct some categories of schemes defined under Specℤ. We define the categories of ℕ-schemes, 1-schemes, -schemes, +-schemes and 1-schemes, where (from an intuitive point of view) ℕ is the semi-ring of natural numbers, 1 is the field with one element, is the ring spectra of integers, + is the semi-ring spectra of natural numbers and 1 is the ring spectra with one element. These categories of schemes are linked together by base change functors, and all of them have a base change functor to the category of ℤ-schemes. We show that the linear group Gln and the toric varieties can be defined as objects in these categories.
