Algebraic curves and Riemann surfaces for undergraduates : the theory of the donut / Anil Nerode, Noam Greenberg.

The theory relating algebraic curves and Riemann surfaces exhibits the unity of mathematics: topology, complex analysis, algebra and geometry all interact in a deep way. This textbook offers an elementary introduction to this beautiful theory for an undergraduate audience. At the heart of the subjec...
