Homogeneous Spaces and Equivariant Embeddings
by Dmitri A. Timashev
Publisher: arXiv 2006
Number of pages: 250
Description:
This is a monograph on homogeneous spaces of algebraic groups and their equivariant embeddings. Some results are supplied with proofs, while the other are cited with references to the original papers. Starting with basic properties of algebraic homogeneous spaces, the author focuses on homogeneous spaces of reductive groups and introduces two invariants: complexity and rank. He considers the Luna-Vust theory of equivariant embeddings, paying attention to the case of complexity not greater than one.

Ample Subvarieties of Algebraic Varietiesby Robin Hartshorne - Springer
These notes are an enlarged version of a three-month course of lectures. Their style is informal. I hope they will serve as an introduction to some current research topics, for students who have had a one year course in modern algebraic geometry.
