Annotation -
The course serves as an introduction to basic aspects of algebraic geometry. The discussed material includes the Zariski spectrum of a commutative ring and its relation to algebraic varieties, geometric aspects of localization of rings, maps between varieties, certain properties of abstract and projective varieties, and local properties of varieties (especially the Krull dimension and its properties).

Requirements to the exam

The course is completed with a written exam. The requirements for the exam correspond to the syllabus and will be applied to the extent to which the topic was presented in lectures. It will be also demanded that the student is able to work with particular examples and do computations to the extent exercised at problem sessions or in given homework.
