Contents
The aim of this seminar is to learn some basic theory of abelian varieties over a field k, which are one of the most important and most studied objects in arithmetic geometry. Abelian varieties are proper algebraic varieties that carry a group structure, and are a higher dimensional generalization of elliptic curves. In this seminar we follow several references in order to compare the analytic and algebraic tools. More precisely, we will focus on:
(i) basic theorems of abelian varieties, such as: commutativity, projectivity etc.;
(ii) complex torus, line bundles on a complex torus, and the algebraiziability of a complex torus;
(iii) the construction of dual abelian varieties;
(iv) Endomorphisms of abelian varieties.
