Algebraic Geometry (2019/2020)
The teaching is organized as follows:
Learning outcomes
The goal of the course is to introduce the basic notions and techniques of algebraic geometry including the relevant parts of commutative algebra, and create a platform from which the students can take off towards more advanced topics, both theoretical and applied, also in view of a master's thesis project. The fist part of the course provides some basic concepts in commutative algebra, such as localization, Noetherian property and prime ideals. The second part covers fundamental notions and results about algebraic and projective varieties over algebraically closed fields and develops the theory of algebraic curves from the viewpoint of modern algebraic Geometry. Finally, the student will be able to deal with some applications, as for instance Gröbner basis or cryptosystems on elliptic curves over finite fields.

Examination Methods
The exam consists of a written examination. The mark obtained in the written examination can be improved by the mark obtained for the homework and/or by an optional oral examination. Only students who have passed the written exam will be admitted to the oral examination.

Double degree
The University of Verona, through a network of agreements with foreign universities, offers international courses that enable students to gain a Double/Joint degree at the time of graduation. Indeed, students enrolled in a Double/Joint degree programme will be able to obtain both the degree of the University of Verona and the degree issued by the Partner University abroad - where they are expected to attend part of the programme -, in the time it normally takes to gain a common Master’s degree. The institutions concerned shall ensure that both degrees are recognised in the two countries.
Places on these programmes are limited, and admissions and any applicable grants are subject to applicants being selected in a specific Call for applications.
The latest Call for applications for Double/Joint Degrees at the University of Verona is available now!
Alternative learning activities
In order to make the study path more flexible, it is possible to request the substitution of some modules with others of the same course of study in Mathematics at the University of Verona (if the educational objectives of the modules to be substituted have already been achieved in the previous career), or with others of the course of study in Mathematics at the University of Trento.Attachments
