Summary

Algebraic Geometry and Arithmetic Curves: A Comprehensive Introduction

This new paperback edition offers a comprehensive introduction to algebraic and arithmetic geometry. It begins with the foundational theory of schemes and progresses to applications in arithmetic surfaces and the theory of algebraic curve reduction.

The first part lays out the basic objects: schemes, morphisms, base change, and local properties like normality and regularity, culminating in Zariski’s Main …

Critics Review

Review from previous edition Will be useful to graduate students as an introduction to arithmetic algebraic geometry, and to more advanced readers and experts in the field.'EMSThis book is unique in the current literature on algebraic and arithmetic geometry, therefore a highly welcome addition to it, and particularly suitable for readers who want to approach more specialized works in this field with more ease. The exposition is exceptionally lucid, rigorous, coherent and comprehensive.‘Zentralblatt MATH`A thorough and far-reaching introduction to algebraic geometry in its scheme-theoretic setting … The rich bibliography with nearly 100 references enhances the value of this textbook as a great introduction and source for research.‘Zentralblatt MATH
