Description for Algebraic Curves and Riemann Surfaces
Hardcover. Takes the approach that algebraic curves are best encountered for the first time over the complex numbers, where the reader's classical intuition about surfaces, integration, and other concepts can be brought into play. This book covers Riemann surfaces, with complex charts and meromorphic functions taking center stage. Series: Graduate Studies in Mathematics. Num Pages: 390 pages. BIC Classification: PBMW. Category: (P) Professional & Vocational. Dimension: 259 x 177 x 26. Weight in Grams: 874.
In this book, Miranda takes the approach that algebraic curves are best encountered for the first time over the complex numbers, where the reader's classical intuition about surfaces, integration, and other concepts can be brought into play. Therefore, many examples of algebraic curves are presented in the first chapters. In this way, the book begins as a primer on Riemann surfaces, with complex charts and meromorphic functions taking center stage.But the main examples come from projective curves, and slowly but surely the text moves toward the algebraic category. Proofs of the Riemann-Roch and Serre Duality Theorems are presented in an ... Read more
