Book DetailsContemporary MathematicsVolume: 465; 2008; 274 ppMSC: Primary 14
This book is devoted to recent progress in the study of curves and abelian varieties. It discusses both classical aspects of this deep and beautiful subject as well as two important new developments, tropical geometry and the theory of log schemes.
In addition to original research articles, this book contains three surveys devoted to singularities of theta divisors, of compactified Jacobians of singular curves, and of “strange duality” among moduli spaces of vector bundles on algebraic varieties.
ReadershipGraduate students and research mathematicians interested in algebraic geometry.
