Algebraic Geometry is a huge area of mathematics which went through several phases: Hilbert's fundamental paper from 1890, sheaves and cohomology introduced by Serre in the 1950s, Grothendieck's theory of schemes in the 1960s and so on. This book covers the basic material known before Serre's introduction of sheaves to the subject with an emphasis on computational methods. In particular, we will use Gröbner basis systematically.
The highlights are the Nullstellensatz, Gröbner basis, Hilbert's syzygy theorem and the Hilbert function, Bézout’s theorem, semi-continuity of the fiber dimension, Bertini's theorem, Cremona resolution of plane curves and parametrization of rational curves.
In the final chapter we discuss the proof of the Riemann-Roch theorem due to Brill and Noether, and give its basic applications.The algorithm to compute the Riemann-Roch space of a divisor on a curve, which has a plane model with only ordinary singularities, use adjoint systems. The proof of the completeness of adjoint systems becomes much more transparent if one use cohomology of coherent sheaves. Instead of giving the original proof of Max Noether, we explain in an appendix how this easily follows from standard facts on cohomology of coherent sheaves.
The book aims at undergraduate students. It could be a course book for a first Algebraic Geometry lecture, and hopefully motivates further studies.
Frank-Olaf Schreyer is a German mathematician, specializing in algebraic geometry and algorithmic algebraic geometry.
Schreyer received in 1983 his PhD from Brandeis University with thesis Syzygies of Curves with Special Pencils under the supervision of David Eisenbud. Schreyer was a professor at University of Bayreuth and is since 2002 a professor for mathematics and computer sciences at Saarland University. He has been a visiting professor at the Simons Laufer Mathematical Sciences Institute at Berkeley and at KAIST in South Korea.
He is involved in the development of (algorithmic) algebraic geometry, and is well-known for his contributions to the theory of syzygies.

If you cancel this contract, we will reimburse to you all payments received from you, including the costs of delivery (except for the supplementary costs arising if you chose a type of delivery other than the least expensive type of standard delivery offered by us).
We may make a deduction from the reimbursement for loss in value of any goods supplied, if the loss is the result of unnecessary handling by you.
We will make the reimbursement without undue delay, and not later than 14 days after the day on which we are informed about your decision to cancel with contract.
We will make the reimbursement using the same means of payment as you used for the initial transaction, unless you have expressly agreed otherwise; in any event, you will not incur any fees as a result of such reimbursement.
We may withhold reimbursement until we have received the goods back or you have supplied evidence of having sent back the goods, whichever is the earliest.
You shall send back the goods or hand them over to us or Basi6 International, 1944 Lantana Ln, 75063, Irving, Texas, U.S.A., 1 2144998944, without undue delay and in any event not later than 14 days from the day on which you communicate your cancellation from this contract to us. The deadline is met if you send back the goods before the period of 14 days has expired. You will have to bear the direct cost of returning the goods.
