Learning outcomes
The goal of the course is to provide a robust introduction to techniques, problems and applications in algebraic geometry.
Course contents
Introduction to affine and projetice curves and surfaces, as abstract algebraic varieties and their properties.
Ideals, varieties, ring of functions, field of functions. Examples. Maps, Morphisms. Abstract varieties. Weighted projective spaces and other examples. Singular and non singular varities. Dimensions. Quotients. Volume forms. The canonical divisor. Adjunction formula. The genus of a plane curve. Examples and applications. Birationality problems; Rationality questions.
The courses Curves and Surfaces and Projective Geometry can be taken in the same year or in different years, in any sequence. The courses do not overlap, rather, they complement each other; the syllabi wiil be coordinated.
