Book Description:
|
Grothendiecks beautiful theory of schemes permeates modern algebraic geometry and underlies its applications to number theory, physics, and applied mathematics. This book provides a simple account, emphasizing and explaining the universal geometric concepts behind the definitions. Designed to complement the technical literature, concepts are illustrated with fundamental examples and explicit calculations show how the constructions of scheme theory are carried out in practice.
