Algebraic surfaces

Raynaud surface

In mathematics, a Raynaud surface is a particular kind of algebraic surface that was introduced in William E. Lang and named for Michel Raynaud. To be precise, a Raynaud surface is a quasi-elliptic surface over an algebraic curve of genus g greater than 1, such that all fibers are irreducible and the fibration has a section. The Kodaira vanishing theorem fails for such surfaces; in other words the Kodaira theorem, valid in algebraic geometry over the complex numbers, has such surfaces as counterexamples, and these can only exist in characteristic p. Generalized Raynaud surfaces were introduced in, and give examples of surfaces of general type with global vector fields. (Wikipedia).

What is the definition of a ray

👉 Learn essential definitions of points, lines, and planes. A point defines a position in space. A line is a set of points. A line can be created by a minimum of two points. A plane is a flat surface made up of at least three points. A plane contains infinite number of lines. A ray is a li

MATH331: Riemann Surfaces - part 1

We define what a Riemann Surface is. We show that PP^1 is a Riemann surface an then interpret our crazy looking conditions from a previous video about "holomorphicity at infinity" as coming from the definition of a Riemann Surface.

Parameterizing Surfaces and Computing Surface Normal Vectors

In this video we discuss parameterizing a surface. We use two approaches, a simple approach which models a surface using a level surface as well as a robust parameterization using two independent variables. We show how both formulations can be used to compute normal vectors to the surfac
