This textbook provides a gentle introduction to intersection homology and perverse sheaves, where concrete examples and geometric applications motivate concepts throughout. By giving a taste of the main ideas in the field, the author welcomes new readers to this exciting area at the crossroads of topology, algebraic geometry, analysis, and differential equations. Those looking to delve further into the abstract theory will find ample references to facilitate navigation of both classic and recent literature.
Intersection Homology & Perverse Sheaves is suitable for graduate students with a basic background in topology and algebraic geometry. By building context and familiarity with examples, the text offers an ideal starting point for those entering the field. This classroom-tested approach opens the door to further study and to current research.
"This is quite a lot for a relatively short book! . this book provides a great jumping-off point for the reader who wants to learn about these tools by a route leading to the forefront of modern research via lots of concrete geometric examples." (Greg Friedman, Mathematical Reviews, March, 2023)
"This book is a welcome addition to the family of introductions to intersection cohomology and perverse sheaves. . the author takes care to introduce and motivate the main objects of study with geometric examples. There are also regular exercises which will help readers come to grips with the material. . this book will ... be a very useful resource . ." (Jon Woolf, zbMATH 1476.55001, 2022)
"This is a good textbook to prepare a student to delve into the current literature, and also a good reference for a researcher. A mathematician whose research or interest has come in contact with these topics would also find this a stimulating read on the subject." (MAA Reviews, April 7, 2020)
Laurentiu G. Maxim is Professor of Mathematics at University of Wisconsin-Madison and a Researcher at the Institute of Mathematics of the Romanian Academy. His research interests lie at the interface of geometric topology and algebraic geometry, with an emphasis on the topological study of complex algebraic varieties. He has taught courses on intersection homology, perverse sheaves and their applications to singularity theory in the United States, Romania, Mainland China, and Hong Kong SAR.
Dateiformat: PDFKopierschutz: Wasserzeichen-DRM (Digital Rights Management)
Systemvoraussetzungen:
Das Dateiformat PDF zeigt auf jeder Hardware eine Buchseite stets identisch an. Daher ist eine PDF auch für ein komplexes Layout geeignet, wie es bei Lehr- und Fachbüchern verwendet wird (Bilder, Tabellen, Spalten, Fußnoten). Bei kleinen Displays von E-Readern oder Smartphones sind PDF leider eher nervig, weil zu viel Scrollen notwendig ist. Mit Wasserzeichen-DRM wird hier ein „weicher” Kopierschutz verwendet. Daher ist technisch zwar alles möglich – sogar eine unzulässige Weitergabe. Aber an sichtbaren und unsichtbaren Stellen wird der Käufer des E-Books als Wasserzeichen hinterlegt, sodass im Falle eines Missbrauchs die Spur zurückverfolgt werden kann.
