from
Wikipedia
Formally, an algebraic function in n variables over the field K is an element of the algebraic closure of the field of rational functions K ( x < sub > 1 </ sub >,..., x < sub > n </ sub >).
In order to understand algebraic functions as functions, it becomes necessary to introduce ideas relating to Riemann surfaces or more generally algebraic varieties, and sheaf theory.
