Description for Riemann Surfaces (Graduate Texts in Mathematics) (v. 71)
Hardcover. Covers Riemann surface theory from elementary aspects to the frontiers of research. This book treats open and closed surfaces with emphasis on the compact case, and develops basic tools developed to describe the analytic, geometric, and algebraic properties of Riemann surfaces and the associated Abelian varities. Series: Graduate Texts in Mathematics. Num Pages: 366 pages, biography. BIC Classification: PBKD. Category: (P) Professional & Vocational. Dimension: 240 x 158 x 27. Weight in Grams: 732.
It is gratifying to learn that there is new life in an old field that has been at the center of one's existence for over a quarter of a century. It is particularly pleasing that the subject of Riemann surfaces has attracted the attention of a new generation of mathematicians from (newly) adjacent fields (for example, those interested in hyperbolic manifolds and iterations of rational maps) and young physicists who have been convinced (certainly not by mathematicians) that compact Riemann surfaces may play an important role in their (string) universe. We hope that non-mathematicians as well as mathematicians (working in ... Read more
