9780821838556: The Geometry of Riemann Surfaces and Abelian Varieties

Synopsis

Twenty papers from the June 2004 meeting present recent research on algebraic curves, Riemann surfaces, modular forms, and hyperbolic geometry. The contributors explore holomorphic foliations by curves in a complex projective space, birational classification of hyperelliptic real curves, and the genus two Jacobians that are isomorphic to a product of elliptic curves. Other topics include planar families of discrete groups, Teichmuller curves defined by characteristic origamis, and the Pfaffian structure defining a Prym theta divisor. No index is provided.
