This volume contains the proceedings of the NSF-CBMS Regional Conference on Algebraic Geometry, held in Sundance, Utah, in July 1988. The conference focused on algebraic curves and related varieties. Some of the papers collected here represent lectures delivered at the conference, some report on research done during the conference, while others describe related work carried out elsewhere.
This book presents a readable and accessible introductory course in algebraic geometry, with most of the fundamental classical results presented with complete proofs.
This book can thus be used as textbook for an introductory course in algebraic geometry following a basic graduate course in algebra.
'' The third edition, in addition to some minor corrections, now offers a new treatment of the Riemann--Roch theorem for curves, including a proof from first principles.
This is a graduate-level text on algebraic geometry that provides a quick and fully self-contained development of the fundamentals, including all commutative algebra which is used.
But because the text is intended for beginning graduate students, it does not require graduate algebra, and in particular, does not assume that the reader is familiar with modules.
This book explains the scheme-theoretic approach to Algebraic Geometry for non-experts, while more advanced readers can use it to broaden their view on the subject.
We define a divisor ( or Weil divisor ) in any ring R to be an element of the free abelian group Div ( R ) whose generators are the codimension 1 prime ideals of R. That is , a Weil divisor of R is a formal linear combination of ...
These editions preserve the original texts of these important books while presenting them in durable paperback and hardcover editions.
"This book is a concise development of affine algebraic geometry together with very explicit links to the applications...[and] should address a wide community of readers, among pure and applied mathematicians." —Monatshefte für ...
An introduction to algebraic geometry and a bridge between its analytical-topological and algebraical aspects, this text for advanced undergraduate students is particularly relevant to those more familiar with analysis than algebra. 1953 ...
