About this title

Synopsis

From a May 2016 conference in Chicago, 15 papers explore local and global methods in algebraic geometry from such perspectives as the canonical map of some surfaces isogenous to a product, the degeneration of differentials and moduli of nodal curves on K3 surfaces, algebraic fiber spaces over abelian varieties: around a recent theorem by Cao and Paun, full cones swept out by minimal rational curves on irreducible Hermitian symmetric spaces as examples of varieties underlying geometric substructures, and Skoda's ideal generation from vanishing theorem for semipositive Nakano curvature and Cauchy-Schwarz inequality for tensors.
