Summary
Decoding Algebraic Geometry: A Computational Introduction
Algebraic Geometry is a vast and evolving field, marked by milestones like Hilbert’s foundational work in 1890, Serre’s introduction of sheaves and cohomology in the 1950s, and Grothendieck’s theory of schemes in the 1960s. This book focuses on the essential concepts predating Serre’s use of sheaves, with a strong emphasis on computational techniques. We will systematically employ Gröbner bases throughout.

About The Author
Frank-Olaf Schreyer
Frank-Olaf Schreyer is a German mathematician, specializing in algebraic geometry and algorithmic algebraic geometry.
Schreyer received in 1983 his PhD from Brandeis University with thesis Syzygies of Curves with Special Pencils under the supervision of David Eisenbud. Schreyer was a professor at University of Bayreuth and is since 2002 a professor for mathematics and computer sciences at Saarland University. He has been a visiting professor at the Simons Laufer Mathematical Sciences Institute at Berkeley and at KAIST in South Korea.
He is involved in the development of (algorithmic) algebraic geometry, and is well-known for his contributions to the theory of syzygies.
