Content and learning outcomes

Course disposition

The course ist fiven as a series of lectures (approx 15x2h). 

Course contents

  • complex manifolds, meromorphic functions, holomorphic vector bundles
  • projective space, blow-ups, complex tori
  • cohomology of complex manifolds
  • some central theorems (such as Serre duality, Lefschetz (1,1)-theorem, Kodaira's embedding theorem)

Intended learning outcomes

After completing the course, the student should be able to

  • prove properties of fundamental concepts in complex algebraic geometry; and
  • draw conclusions about compact complex manifolds using techniques and theorems.

Literature and preparations

Specific prerequisites

Master degree in mathematics, or equivalent.
