Complex Analysis and Algebraic Geometry - A Volume in Memory of Michael Schneider (Hardcover, Reprint 2016)

Without an introduction, this volume of 19 papers plunges right into the subject matter presented at the June 1998 symposium held at Bayreuth U. in Bayreuth, Germany. A sampling of topics: almost-lines and quasi-lines on projective manifolds, the classification of K3 surfaces with nine cusps, simply connected Godeaux surfaces, Kahlerian structures on symplectic reductions, and A geometric proof of Ax' theorem. One paper is in untranslated French. Includes an essay on Michael Schneider's scientific work with a publications list (including his still standard reference on vector bundles on projective spaces); a photograph and "alpine" vita of Schneider (who died while sports-climbing in 1997); a list of the eight symposium lectures; and a listing of the authors and participants with contact information. Lacks an index.
