Complex Algebraic Surfaces Fall 2021

Lecturer
Prof. Rahul Pandharipande
Tim-Henrik Buelles

Content

The aim of the seminar is to understand the Enriques classification of complex algebraic surfaces. We will see how techniques of algebraic geometry are applied to classify complex algebraic surfaces. Along the way we discuss invariants from cohomology and intersection theory and encounter important examples of varieties, such as ruled, abelian and K3 surfaces.

All necessary information can be found here.
