The Geometry of Schemes by David Eisenbud (English) Paperback Book

Description: The Geometry of Schemes by David Eisenbud, Joe Harris Estimated delivery 3-12 business days Format Paperback Condition Brand New Description This text is intended to fill the gap between texts on classical algebraic geometry and the full-blown accounts of the theory of schemes. The text focuses on interesting examples, with a minimum of machinery, to show what is happening in the field. Included is a large number of exercises, spread throughout the text. Publisher Description The theory of schemes is the foundation for algebraic geometry proposed and elaborated by Alexander Grothendieck and his coworkers. It has allowed major progress in classical areas of algebraic geometry such as invariant theory and the moduli of curves. It integrates algebraic number theory with algebraic geometry, fulfilling the dreams of earlier generations of number theorists. This integration has led to proofs of some of the major conjectures in number theory (Delignes proof of the Weil Conjectures, Faltings proof of the Mordell Conjecture). This book is intended to bridge the chasm between a first course in classical algebraic geometry and a technical treatise on schemes. It focuses on examples, and strives to show "what is going on" behind the definitions. There are many exercises to test and extend the readers understanding. The prerequisites are modest: a little commutative algebra and an acquaintance with algebraic varieties, roughly at the level of a one-semester course. The book aims to show schemes in relation to other geometric ideas, such as the theory of manifolds. Some familiarity with these ideas is helpful, though not required. Author Biography The author taught at Brandeis University for twenty-seven years, with sabbatical time spent in Paris, Bonn, and Berkeley, and became Director of the Mathematical Sciences Research Institute in Berkeley in the Summer of 1997. At the same time he joined the faculty of UC Berkeley as Professor of Mathematics. In 2003 he became President of the American Mathematical Society. He currently serves on several editorial boards (Annals of Mathematics, Bulletin du SociA(c)tA(c) MathA(c)matique de France, Springer-Verlags book series Algorithms and Computation in Mathematics).
