MAT 627 |
Prof. Claude LeBrun.
Office: Math Tower 3-108.
Office hours: TuTh 2:30--3:30, or by appointment.
This course is intended as a continuation of MAT 545, Complex Geometry, and will study compact complex manifolds through the lens of of differential topology. The first part of the course will focus on general techniques for studying the interplay between the topology and complex-analytic properties of complex manifolds. The remainder of the course will then focus on the special case of compact complex surfaces, and will include a self-contained introduction to Seiberg-Witten theory.
While the lectures will be relatively self-contained, they will assume a basic familiarity with complex manifolds on the level of MAT 545. Students who have not yet passed the departmental comprehensive exam may therefore enroll only by permission of the instructor.
Grades will be based upon class participation.
