    Contemporary Mathematics
    Volume: 7662021; 282 pp
    MSC: Primary 14; 30

    Articles in this volume are based on lectures given at three conferences on Geometry at the Frontier, held at the Universidad de la Frontera, Pucón, Chile in 2016, 2017, and 2018.

    The papers cover recent developments on the theory of algebraic varieties—in particular, of their automorphism groups and moduli spaces. They will be of interest to anyone working in the area, as well as young mathematicians and students interested in complex and algebraic geometry.

    Readership

    Graduate students and research mathematicians interested in algebraic geometry.
