Resolution of Singularities of Embedded Algebraic Surfaces

By Shreeram Shankar Abhyankar and S. Abhyankhar

Book Overview

Besides the description of the geometric part of the author's 1965 proof of desingularization of algebraic surfaces and solids in nonzero characteristic, this new edition provides a self-contained introduction to birational algebraic geometry, based only on commutative algebra. It also gives a short proof of analytic desingularization in characteristic zero for any dimension found in 1996.
