ZAG Handbook of Algebraic Geometry

The ZAG Handbook of Algebraic Geometry provides an extensive collection of extended summaries of all the research talks given at the worldwide ZAG (Zoom Algebraic Geometry) Seminar as well as contributed short notes. Featuring contributions from all continents from some of the most respected voices in the field the book is aimed at researchers in algebraic geometry and related fields who want to gain a comprehensive understanding of state-of-the-art research in algebraic geometry. The book is broad and wide-ranging offering material suitable to multiple levels of readership: from advanced undergraduate students in mathematics to active specialized researchers. Features  A showcase of the most important worldwide trends in algebraic geometry in recent years  Over two hundred short summaries of state-of-the-art research in algebraic geometry accessible to other mathematicians  A combination of contributions by renowned mathematicians key researchers and new talent  Links to recordings of hour-long presentations for each contribution Ivan Cheltsov is a Professor at the University of Edinburgh United Kingdom and his research interests include birational geometry and K-stability of Fano varieties. He is the author of 3 books and 126 articles written together with 52 co-authors.
