Algebraic Geometry

Published 1 March 1988

This guide to algebraic geometry covers the active areas of the subject: birational geometry of higher dimensional algebraic varieties, Kahler manifolds and analytic varieties, abelian varieties, arithmetic algebraic geometry, rigid analytic spaces, cycles and vector bundles on algebraic varieties, mixed Hodge structures, period maps for K3 surfaces and for isolated singularities. Many of the papers not only contain original results, but also survey the particular topics covered.
