Lectures on the Arithmetic Riemann-Roch Theorem.
Герд Фалтингс, Shou-Wu Zhang · 1992
The arithmetic Riemann-Roch theorem has been shown recently by Bismut-Gillet-Soule. The proof mixes algebra, arithmetic and analysis. The purpose of this book is to give a concise introduction to the necessary techniques, and to present a simplified and extended version of the proof. It should enable mathematicians with a background in arithmetic algebraic geometry to understand some basic techniques in the rapidly evolving field of Arakelov theory.
