Riemann surfaces: A playground for analysis, topology, geometry, group theory, and Galois theory
MAI Faculty Seminar
(2016)
Abstract
The study of Riemann surfaces began in the last half of the nineteenth century and continues as a very active research area today and in the foreseeable future. Â During its history, the study of Riemann surfaces has used all the tools of the topic areas of the title. In this talk we will explore how Riemann surfaces interact with these topic areas. Special attention will be paid to hyperelliptic surfaces and their generalizations, superelliptic surfaces.
