ALGEBRAIC GEOMETRY IN EAST ASIA
Proceedings of the Symposium
Kyoto, Japan 3 - 10 August 2001

edited by Akira Ohbuchi (Tokushima University, Japan), Kazuhiro Konno, Sampei Usui (Osaka University, Japan), Atsushi Moriwaki (Kyoto University, Japan) & Noboru Nakayama (RIMS, Japan)

This book is the proceedings of the conference "Algebraic Geometry in East Asia" which was held in International Institute for Advanced Studies (IIAS) during August 3 to August 10, 2001.

As the breadth of the topics covered in this proceedings demonstrate, the conference was indeed successful in assembling a wide spectrum of East Asian mathematicians, and gave them a welcome chance to discuss current state of algebraic geometry.
