Information

Aims, contents and method of the course

This course will study the relationship between finitely generated commutative algebras over a field, in particular polynomial algebras, and affine varieties, defined by polynomial conditions in affine n-space. Topics to be covered include basic notions of commutative algebra: rings and their ideals, the Noetherian condition, the maximal and prime spectrum of an algebra, module theory, localisation, morphisms, the Nullstellensatz and Noether normalisation; as well as basic notions of algebraic geometry: affine varieties and their morphisms, the Zariski topology, non-singular and singular varieties and dimension theory.
