Contents

From [MAT-40-26-K-6] Riemann Surfaces:
  • Riemann surfaces and holomorphic images,
  • topological properties, fundamental groups, coverings,
  • sheaves, differential forms, integration,
  • cohomology and exact sequences,
  • Riemann-Roch theorem and Serre duality.

Competencies / intended learning achievements

Upon successful completion of this module, the students are familiar with the classical theory of Riemann surfaces which has had an influence on subsequent mathematical theories, such as the ambiguous theory of functions (e.g. radical and logarithm), differential geometry or the geometry of algebraic curves. Vice versa, by a specific example which is close to intuition (the Riemann surfaces), the students have learnt to apply general concepts related to complex analysis and geometry. They are able to name and to prove the essential statements of the lecture as well as to classify and to explain the connections.

Literature
