Items related to Algebraic Geometry over the Complex Numbers
Synopsis
This is a relatively fast paced graduate level introduction to complex algebraic geometry, from the basics to the frontier of the subject. It covers sheaf theory, cohomology, some Hodge theory, as well as some of the more algebraic aspects of algebraic geometry. The author frequently refers the reader if the treatment of a certain topic is readily available elsewhere but goes into considerable detail on topics for which his treatment puts a twist or a more transparent viewpoint. His cases of exploration and are chosen very carefully and deliberately. The textbook achieves its purpose of taking new students of complex algebraic geometry through this a deep yet broad introduction to a vast subject, eventually bringing them to the forefront of the topic via a non-intimidating style.

From the Back Cover
This textbook is a strong addition to existing introductory literature on algebraic geometry. The author’s treatment combines the study of algebraic geometry with differential and complex geometry and unifies these subjects using sheaf-theoretic ideas. It is also an ideal text for showing students the connections between algebraic geometry, complex geometry, and topology, and brings the reader close to the forefront of research in Hodge theory and related fields.
Unique features of this textbook:
- Contains a rapid introduction to complex algebraic geometry
- Includes background material on topology, manifold theory and sheaf theory
- Analytic and algebraic approaches are developed somewhat in parallel The presentation is easy going, elementary, and well illustrated with examples.
“Algebraic Geometry over the Complex Numbers” is intended for graduate level courses in algebraic geometry and related fields. It can be used as a main text for a second semester graduate course in algebraic geometry with emphasis on sheaf theoretical methods or a more advanced graduate course on algebraic geometry and Hodge Theory.
