American Mathematical Soc., 2005 - Mathematics - 276 pages
A Special Session on affine and algebraic geometry took place at the first joint meeting between the American Mathematical Society (AMS) and the Real Sociedad Matematica Espanola (RSME) held in Seville (Spain). This volume contains articles by participating speakers at the Session. The book contains research and survey papers discussing recent progress on the Jacobian Conjecture and affine algebraic geometry and includes a large collection of open problems. It is suitable for graduate students and research mathematicians interested in algebraic geometry.
