The aim of this book is to describe the underlying principles of algebraic geometry, some of its important developments in the twentieth century, and some of the problems that occupy its practitioners today. It is intended for the working or the aspiring mathematician who is unfamiliar with algebraic geometry but wishes to gain an appreciation of its foundations and its goals with a minimum of prerequisites. Few algebraic prerequisites are presumed beyond a basic course in linear algebra.

Algebraic geometry and geometric modeling both deal with curves and surfaces generated by polynomial equations. Algebraic geometry investigates the theoretical properties of polynomial curves and surfaces; geometric modeling uses polynomial, piecewise polynomial, and rational curves and surfaces to build computer models of mechanical components and assemblies for industrial design and manufacture.The NSF sponsored the four-day ’Vilnius Workshop on Algebraic Geometry and Geometric Modeling’, which brought together some of the top experts in the two research communities to examine a

This volume contains the proceedings of the NSF-CBMS Regional Conference on Algebraic Geometry, held in Sundance, Utah, in July 1988. The conference focused on algebraic curves and related varieties. Some of the papers collected here represent lectures delivered at the conference, some report on research done during the conference, while others describe related work carried out elsewhere.

This volume contains 16 carefully refereed articles by participants in the Special Session on Real Algebraic Geometry and Ordered Algebraic Structures at the Sectional Meeting of the AMS in Baton Rouge, April 1996, and the associated Special Semester in the spring of 1996 at Louisiana State University and Southern University, Baton Rouge. The 23 contributors to this volume were among the 75 mathematicians from 15 countries who participated. Topics include the topology of real algebraic curves (Hilbert’s 16th problem), moduli of real algebraic curves, effective sums o

This EMS volume consists of two parts. The first part is devoted to the exposition of the cohomology theory of algebraic varieties. The second part deals with algebraic surfaces. The authors have taken pains to present the material rigorously and coherently. The book contains numerous examples and insights on various topics.This book will be immensely useful to mathematicians and graduate students working in algebraic geometry, arithmetic algebraic geometry, complex analysis and related fields.The authors are well-known experts in the field and I.R. Shafarevich is also known for being the auth
