Written in celebration of Miles Reid's 70th birthday, this illuminating volume contains 11 papers by leading mathematicians in and around algebraic geometry, broadly related to the themes and interests of Reid's varied career. Just as in Reid's own scientific output, some of the papers give comprehensive accounts of the state of the art of foundational matters, while others give expositions of subject areas or techniques in concrete terms. Reid has been one of the major expositors of algebraic geometry and a great influence on many in this field – this book hopes to inspire a new generation of graduate students and researchers in his tradition.
Read more- Discusses a broad range of contemporary research and recent advances related to Miles Reid's interests and career
- Written by a cross-section of Reid's colleagues and collaborators spanning his career, all leading mathematicians at the forefront of algebraic geometry research
- Includes concrete analysis of a foundational case of mirror symmetry, as well as other topics ranging from classical geometry to new classes of variety
