This book takes an in-depth look at abelian relations of codimension one webs in the complex analytic setting. In its classical form, web geometry consists in the study of webs up to local diffeomorphisms. A significant part of the theory revolves around the concept of abelian relation, a particular kind of functional relation among the first integrals of the foliations of a web. Two main focuses of the book include how many abelian relations can a web carry and which webs are carrying the maximal possible number of abelian relations. The book offers complete proofs of both Chern’s bound and ... Read more

Reviews for An Invitation to Web Geometry
“This book gives an important contribution on the study of web geometry and its relation with algebraic and complex geometry. … We also note that the book is presented in a self-contained way. … We remark that several very interesting and different examples are presented and the book moreover illustrates the interplay with several areas of mathematics.” (Arturo Fernández-Pérez, Mathematical ...
