This lecture is usually given as a classical blackboard lecture at the University of Stuttgart. Due to the current situation (Corona-virus), the lecture has to be given completely online. The videos shown here are small modifications of the videos actually used in the lecture (mostly copyright issues).

Sources of the pictures used are given below each picture, a list of useful references is given in Video #00.
