Content, Learning Outcome and Preconditions
Content
- schemes and their morphisms
- coherent sheaves
- projective, affine, reduced, and normal schemes
- differentials
- blow-ups and normalization
- coherent sheaves
- projective, affine, reduced, and normal schemes
- differentials
- blow-ups and normalization
Learning Outcome
After successful completion of the module the students have understood a more advanced mathematical theory. They are able to apply the learned algebraic and geometric concepts and notions to basic questions in algebraic geometry.

Module Exam
Description of exams and course work
The exam will be an written examination (90 minutes).
The students will be asked to reproduce and explain definitions and results from the lecture and to give illustrating examples. Further, they are asked to apply these results as well as key arguments explained in the lecture to new examples that are given in the exam.
