Title: Algebraic geometry
Description: This timely resource - based on the Summer School on Algebraic Geometry held recently at Bilkent University, Ankara, Turkey - surveys and applies fundamental ideas and techniques in the theory of curves, surfaces, and threefolds to a wide variety of subjects.

Written by leading authorities representing distinguished institutions, Algebraic Geometry furnishes all the basic definitions necessary for understanding, provides interrelated articles that support and refer to one another, and covers weighted projective spaces...toric varieties...the Riemann-Kempf singularity theorem...McPherson's graph construction...Grobner techniques...complex multiplication...coding theory...and more.

With over 1250 bibliographic citations, equations, and drawings, as well as an extensive index, Algebraic Geometry is an invaluable resource for algebraic geometers, algebraists, geometers, number theorists, topologists, theoretical physicists, and upper-level undergraduate and graduate students in these disciplines.
