Objectives

The main goal is to introduce to the studentes the methods of Algebraic Geometry, namely, to give them the basic tools such that they will be able to work with the concepts of affine or projective varieties and their morphisms which it will be a start point for further research in this area.

Prerequisites

Linear Algebra: vector space, dimension, matrix, linear transformations

Algebra: field, ring, ideal, polynomial ring with coefficients in a field

Topology: open and closed topology, quotient topology

Subject matter

  1. Algebraic Varieties
  2. Theory of sheaves
  3. Application to the local analitic geometry
  4. Divisors
  5. Vector bundles on algebraic curves
