This work presents original, refereed papers that explore current topics in projective geometry, revealing a locus of mathematical techniques and approaches applicable to and informed by algebraic geometry, complex analysis, commutative algebra and number theory. Diverse subjects such as adjunction theory, Fano manifolds, applications of Mori theory, and subvarieties of Grassmannians, are covered.
Three survey papers and 15 research papers consider projective geometry as a focus of study in itself, and as both a tool and subject of other mathematical techniques. The topics include adjunction theory, Fano manifolds, applications of Mori theory, and subvarieties of Grassmannians. Reproduced from typescripts. No subject index.
