MAT 614 TOPICS IN ALGEBRAIC GEOMETRY

The topology of algebraic varieties and maps

FALL '02

In-class presentations (please show me a draft of your presentation as soon as possible):
12/6: J-H Teh: Holomorphic line bundles over the Riemann sphere
12/6: Y. Mustopa: The Leray-Hirsch Theorem
12/9: Y. Liu: The Leray s.s. for the S^1-bundle of a complex line bundle.
12/9: L. Li: the intersection matrix of a bunch of contractible curves.
12/13: Z. Nie: The intersection cohomology groups of the cone over a projective manifold.

I will be teaching MAT 615 in Spring 2003. Therefore, the pace of the MAT 614 class will be somehow slower and we will cover less material in the Fall, but will have more time for examples and in-class presentations.

Syllabus: pdf file, ps file, dvi file, tex file.
