Learning outcomes
At the end of this course, the student knows the basic notions of scheme theory. These can be applied in their research field in algebra and geometry.
Course contents
If there are people who are interested in this class and do not speak Italian, I am happy to deliver this class in English.
Scheme theory, which was developed by Alexander Grothendieck, is the modern and rigorous language with which one studies algebraic geometry. It unifies classical algebraic geometry and algebraic number theory.
The topics of this class include: sheaves, schemes, global and local properties of schemes, coherent sheaves, sheaf cohomology.
Prerequisites: commutative algebra (as treated in the course 06689), projective geometry (as treated in the course 54777), classical algebraic geometry (as treated in the course 96733). Please read the Italian version for a more comprehensive list of prerequisites.
All relevant material will appear in the webpage of the course: https://www.dm.unibo.it/~andrea.petracci3/2025Schemi/
