description: Collects the 17 papers presented during the July and October 2001 conferences held in Luminy and Annapolis. The longest paper in the volume studies meromorphic jacobian pairs, the beta invariant for any two meromorphic curves, and the Newton polygon. Other topics include expressions for resultants coming from the global theory of singularities, Puiseux exponents for higher dimensional singularities, the weak Deligne-Simpson problem for index of rigidity, elliptic fibrations and elliptic models, and the equivalence of the geometric and algebraic group laws for jacobians of genus two curves.
