Algebraic Geometry And Arithmetic Curves algebraic geometry and Arithmetic Curves Another feature of this highly valuable book on algebraic and arithmetic geometry is provided by the vast http://www.math.u-bordeaux.fr/~liu/Book/
Extractions: As to the first [part], purely algebro-geometric part of the book, it seems fair to say that this is, after A. Grothendieck's voluminous treatise "Éléments de géométrie algébrique. IIV" (EGA IIV), the most comprehensive and detailed elaboration of the theory of algebraic schemes available in (text-)book form, whereas the second, merely arithmetic part provides the very first systematic and coherent introduction to the advanced theory of arithmetic curves and surfaces at all. Moreover, the entire text is arranged in such exhaustive a way that the book is essentially self-contained, keeping the prerequisites at a minimum, and perfectly suitable for seasoned graduate students. Another feature of this highly valuable book on algebraic and arithmetic geometry is provided by the vast amount of illustrating, theoretically important examples as well as by the approximately six hundred included exercises.

Extractions: In 2000, the Clay Mathematics Institute published a list of seven one-million dollar Millennium Prize Problems. These problems, selected by a panel of leading mathematicians, are widely regarded as the most important open problems in mathematics. One problem on the list is the Riemann Hypothesis, which concerns the location of the zeroes of the so-called Riemann zeta function. A proof of the Riemann Hypothesis would have major implications for many questions in number theory, notably on the distribution of prime numbers. Another Clay problem is the conjecture of Birch and Swinnerton-Dyer. It asserts that one can obtain very precise information about the arithmetic of an elliptic curve-or, in plain terms, about the rational solutions to cubic equations in two variables-by analytic means; namely, by examining a special value of the Hasse-Weil L-function associated to the curve. Both the Riemann zeta function and the Hasse-Weil L-functions are examples of L-functions, and their occurrence on the Clay list illustrates the central role that L-functions play in number theory in general and in arithmetic algebraic geometry in particular. `Arithmetic algebraic geometry' is the modern name for the age-old theory of diophantine equations, with an emphasis on the use of tools from algebraic geometry.

Extractions: For a general description of this course, see the description in the `studiegids' , and for the schedule (time and location) see schedules in the `studiegids' , or see the pages of the Dutch Master Program in Mathematics This page gives a progress report on what has been done (course and problem session), and gives a planning of what is to follow. And there is more: the New Deal regarding the procedure for getting a grade for this course. This procedure, of which the organisational details still have to be worked out, is that those who wish to obtain a grade pass an oral examination, during which the selected exercises for the problem session will be discussed, with all documentation (the book, other books, solutions) available. 1. February 7 In the course, section I.1 (of Hartshorne's book) has been treated up to Remark 1.4.6. A proof of Hilbert's Nullstellensatz has been promised for later (and maybe a proof of Hilbert's Basis Theorem, saying that if A is noetherian, then A[x] is noetherian). The selected exercises are: 1.1(a),(b), 1.2, 1.3, 1.4, 1.6, 1.7. 2. February 14

AMS Special Session On "Algebraic Geometry And Combinatorics" (1) work proved using a mixture of both algebraic geometric and combinatorial methods; or. (2) results/conjectures proved using principally techniques from http://math.berkeley.edu/~ayong/AMS_AGC.html
Extractions: 2005 Spring Western Section Meeting, Santa Barbara, CA, April 16-17, 2005 The goal of this special session is to bring together researchers whose interests relate to both algebraic geometry and combinatorics. The focus will be on: (1) work proved using a mixture of both algebraic geometric and combinatorial methods; or (2) results/conjectures proved using principally techniques from one of the areas of the above title, but which suggest further work in the other. Proposed speaker topics include: moduli space of curves, Kazhdan-Lusztig theory, geometry of Schubert varieties, toric varieties, degeneracy loci and determinantal varieties, Groebner geometry, tropical geometry, Schubert calculus, equivariant cohomology for spaces with a torus action and Hilbert schemes. Our room will have a blackboard and projector, but no computer projector. Further details will be posted here as they become available. Or you may contact the organizers Alexander Yong and Allen Knutson

Volume 60 "Algorithmic And Quantitative Real Algebraic Geometry" Algorithmic and quantitative aspects in real algebraic geometry are becoming increasingly important areas of research because of their roles in other areas http://dimacs.rutgers.edu/Volumes/Vol60.html
Extractions: EDITORS: Saugata Basu and Laureano Gonzalez-Vega This volume may be obtained from the AMS or through bookstores in your area. To order through AMS contact the AMS Customer Services Department, P.O. Box 6248, Providence, Rhode Island 02940-6248 USA. For Visa, Mastercard, Discover, and American Express orders call 1-800-321-4AMS. You may also visit the AMS Bookstore and order directly from there. DIMACS does not distribute or sell these books. Algorithmic and quantitative aspects in real algebraic geometry are becoming increasingly important areas of research because of their roles in other areas of mathematics and computer science. The papers in this volume collectively span several different areas of current research. The articles are based on talks given at the DIMACS Workshop on "Algorithmic and Quantitative Aspects of Real Algebraic Geometry". Topics include deciding basic algebraic properties of real semi-algebraic sets, application of quantitative results in real algebraic geometry towards investigating the computational complexity of various problems, algorithmic and quantitative questions in real enumerative geometry, new approaches towards solving decision problems in semi-algebraic geometry, as well as computing algebraic certificates, and applications of real algebraic geometry to concrete problems arising in robotics and computer graphics. The book is intended for researchers interested in computational methods in algebra.
