| Comments |
This is the first semester of a year-long introductory course in algebraic
geometry. This semester we will study the basic definitions of varieties,
and start learning the more abstract and general definitions of sheaves and
schemes.
I expect to follow the book fairly closely. In particular the algebraic aspects of algebraic geometry will be emphasized over the complex analytic (for the latter, see Griffiths-Harris). |
