MATH 6373 Algebraic Geometry

The course will begin with an introduction to polynomials and ideals, Grobner bases, and affine varieties. This includes the Hilbert Basis Theorem, the Nullstellensatz, and the ideal-variety correspondence. Thereafter, the course will focus on examples and computations. Topics include solving systems by elimination, resultants, computations in local rings, modules and syzygies, and polytopes and toric varieties.
