The course will be on algebraic geometry of low dimensional algebraic
varieties – curves and surfaces. We will roughly follow Hartshorne’s
“Algebraic Geometry” Ch. IV,V. As needed we will briefly recall the
general algebraic-geometrical concepts covered in the first 3 chapters of
this book. If you had no previous experience with algebraic geometry,
the course still may be interesting to you, provided some background in
algebra, complex analysis and algebraic topology.
