8	Surface topology more books like this by P A Firby add to wishlist This text examines the topology of compact surfaces through the development of some simple ideas in place geometry, an approach which allows a treatment of an area of mathematics that is particularly attractive both for the richness of its applications, and for the variety of its interactions with other branches of mathematics. A wide variety of ... see all copies from $6.70! new only from $35.00! \| first editions
9	Geometry and Interpolation of Curves and Surfaces more books like this by Robin J Y McLeod, M Louisa Baart add to wishlist This text takes a practical, step-by-step approach to algebraic curves and surface interpolation motivated by the understanding of the many practical applications in engineering analysis, approximation, and curve plotting problems. Because of its usefulness for computing, the algebraic approach is the main theme, but a brief discussion of the ... see all copies from $90.58! new only from $90.58!
10	Smooth Four-Manifolds and Complex Surfaces more books like this by Robert Friedman add to wishlist This book applies the recent techniques of gauge theory to study the smooth classification of compact complex surfaces. The study is divided into four main areas: Classical complex surface theory, gauge theory and Donaldson invariants, deformations of holomorphic vector bundles, and explicit calculations for elliptic sur faces. The book represents ... see all copies from $95.00! new only from $160.39! \| first editions \| SVS

12 view cover	Birational Geometry of Algebraic Varieties more books like this by Janos Kollar, Shigefumi Mori add to wishlist One of the major discoveries of the last two decades of the twentieth century in algebraic geometry is the realization that the theory of minimal models of surfaces can be generalized to higher dimensional varieties. This generalization, called the minimal model program or Mori's program, has developed into a powerful tool with applications to ... see all copies from $42.11! new only from $42.11! \| SVS
13 view cover	Compact Complex Surfaces more books like this by Wolf Barth add to wishlist The first edition of "Compact Complex Surfaces" was published in 1984 and has become one of the most important books on the subject. In this second enlarged edition the major developments of the last 20 years have been incorporated. The Enriques-Kodaira classification is carried out in the spirit of Mori theory and many new developments have been ... see all copies from $103.56! new only from $103.56! \| first editions \| SVS

15 view cover	Resolution of Curve and Surface Singularities: In Characteristic Zero more books like this by K Kiyek, J L Vicente add to wishlist This book covers the beautiful theory of resolutions of surface singularities in characteristic zero. The primary goal is to present in detail, and for the first time in one volume, two proofs for the existence of such resolutions. One construction was introduced by H.W.E. Jung, and another is due to O. Zariski. Jung's approach uses quasi-ordinary ... see all copies from $82.71! new only from $82.71! \| first editions \| SVS

The book gives proof that a dominant morphism from a nonsingular 3-fold X to a surface S can be monomialized by performing sequences of blowups of nonsingular subvarieties of X and S. ... see all copies from $36.14! new only from $36.14! \| SVS
