Closed subschemes of noncommutative schemes

Abstract:

The properties of a commutative scheme are strongly reflected in its category of quasi-coherent sheaves.  One approach to noncommutative geometry is to consider arbitrary categories with similar properties (e.g. Grothendieck categories) as geometric objects in their own right.  We discuss how one might to define an analog of closed subscheme in this context and give lots of examples of how the definition behaves in both reasonable and non-intuitive ways.
