Publisher's Synopsis
Algebraic geometry is a traditional and fast-developing research area in East Asia. There are many world-leading algebraic geometers, and an increasing number of active mathematicians in related areas, in East Asia, including China, Japan, Korea, Taiwan and Vietnam. The purpose of the Algebraic Geometry in East Asia conference series is to provide a platform for algebraic geometers in or near East Asia. This volume contains the proceedings of the conference on Algebraic Geometry in East Asia, Taipei, which was held in November 2011 at the National Center for Theoretical Sciences (NCTS) in Taipei. The volume contains two survey articles and nine research articles. It provides the latest advances in algebraic geometry research in East Asia.
