Warming up -- 2. Sheaves, algebraic varieties and analytic spaces -- 3. Homological algebra and duality -- 4. Definition of a singularity, resolutions of singularities -- 5. Divisors and sheaves on a variety -- 6. Differential forms around a singularity -- 7. Normal two-dimensional singularities -- 8. Higher-dimensional singularities -- 9. Deformations of singularities-- References-- Index N2 - This book presents some results of the study of singularities within the field of algebraic geometry. ... The text is clear and well written and it is accessible to non-expert readers. ... the author defines all the concepts and the results are either proved or a reference is provided. This makes the book self-contained in a broad sense ER -
