An Introduction to Riemann Surfaces: Cornerstones

Autor Terrence Napier, Mohan Ramachandran
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 28 sep 2011
This textbook presents a unified approach to compact and noncompact Riemann surfaces from the point of view of the so-called L2 $\bar{\delta}$-method. This method is a powerful technique from the theory of several complex variables, and provides for a unique approach to the fundamentally different characteristics of compact and noncompact Riemann surfaces.
The inclusion of continuing exercises running throughout the book, which lead to generalizations of the main theorems, as well as the exercises included in each chapter make this text ideal for a one- or two-semester graduate course. The prerequisites are a working knowledge of standard topics in graduate level real and complex analysis, and some familiarity of manifolds and differential forms.

Recenzii

From the reviews:
“The present book gives a solid introduction to the theory of both compact and non-compact Riemann surfaces. While modern introductions often take the view point of algebraic geometry, the present book tries to also cover the analytical aspects. … The book is well written and constitutes a nice contribution to the existing literature on this topic.” (G. Teschl, Internationale Mathematische Nachrichten, Issue 225, 2014)
“This book takes the point of view that Riemann surface theory lies at the root of much of modern analysis, and … illustrate some of the interactions of analysis with geometry and topology. … While much of the book is intended for students at the second-year graduate level, Chapters 1 and 2 and Section 5.2 (along with the required background material) could serve as the basis for the complex analytic analysis component of a year-long first-year graduate-level course on real and complex analysis.” (V. V. Chueshev, Zentralblatt MATH, Vol. 1237, 2012)

Textul de pe ultima copertă

This textbook presents a unified approach to compact and noncompact Riemann surfaces from the point of view of the L² -method, a powerful technique used in the theory of several complex variables.  The work features a simple construction of a strictly subharmonic exhaustion function and a related construction of a positive-curvature Hermitian metric in a holomorphic line bundle, topics which serve as starting points for proofs of standard results such as the Mittag-Leffler, Weierstrass, and Runge theorems; the Riemann−Roch theorem; the Serre duality and Hodge decomposition theorems; and the uniformization theorem. The book also contains treatments of other facts concerning the holomorphic, smooth, and topological structure of a Riemann surface, such as the biholomorphic classification of Riemann surfaces, the embedding theorems, the integrability of almost complex structures, the Schönflies theorem (and the Jordan curve theorem), and the existence of smooth structures on second countable surfaces. 
Although some previous experience with complex analysis, Hilbert space theory, and analysis on manifolds would be helpful, the only prerequisite for this book is a working knowledge of point-set topology and elementary measure theory. The work includes numerous exercises—many of which lead to further development of the theory—and  presents (with proofs) streamlined treatments of background topics from analysis and topology on manifolds in easily-accessible reference chapters, making it ideal for a one- or two-semester graduate course.
