Description for Plane Algebraic Curves (Student Mathematical Library, V. 15)
Paperback. The study of the zeroes of polynomials, which for one variable is essentially algebraic, becomes a geometric theory for several variables. This book looks at the classic entry point to the subject: plane algebraic curves. It presents an introduction to algebraic geometry, which assumes the standard undergraduate mathematical topics. Series: Student Mathematical Library. Num Pages: 206 pages, bibliography, index. BIC Classification: PBMW. Category: (P) Professional & Vocational. Dimension: 219 x 143 x 12. Weight in Grams: 310.
The study of the zeroes of polynomials, which for one variable is essentially algebraic, becomes a geometric theory for several variables. In this book, Fischer looks at the classic entry point to the subject: plane algebraic curves. Here one quickly sees the mix of algebra and geometry, as well as analysis and topology, that is typical of complex algebraic geometry, but without the need for advanced techniques from commutative algebra or the abstract machinery of sheaves and schemes. In the first half of this book, Fischer introduces some elementary geometrical aspects, such as tangents, singularities, inflection points, and so on.The ... Read more
