This volume is the outcome of the conference “Algebraic Geometry in East Asia. II” which was held at the Conference Hall (Hanoi, Vietnam) during October 10 - October 14, 2005. It collects two survey articles and eight research articles contributed by the invited lecturers. Topics touched upon in this volume include: Zariski pairs, rational homogeneous manifolds, Kummer surfaces, singularity theory, Cremona groups, algebraic curves, dual varieties, Castelnuovo-Weil lattices and so on. The reader can not only find the current status of a variety of research topics but also enjoy...

Contains the proceedings of the International Conference on Probability and Number Theory held at Kanazawa, Japan, in June 2005. This title includes several survey articles on probabilistic number theory and research papers on various topics around the bor

The volume contains surveys and original articles based on the talks given at the 40-th Finsler Symposium on Finsler Geometry held in the period September 9-10, 2005 at Hokkaido Tokai University, Sapporo, Japan. The Symposium's purpose was not only a meeting of the Finsler geometers from Japan and abroad, but also to commemorate the memory of the late Professor Makoto Matsumoto. The papers included in this volume contain fundamental topics of modern Riemann-Finsler geometry, interesting not only for specialists in Finsler geometry, but for researchers in Riemannian geometry or other...

Constitutes the proceedings of the Third Franco-Japanese Symposium on Singularities in Geometry and Topology, held in Sapporo in September 2004. This title contains not only research papers on the advanced topics in the field but also some survey articles,

Since its birth algebraic geometry has been closely related to and deeply motivated by number theory. Particularly the modern study of moduli spaces and arithmetic geometry have many important techniques and ideas in common. With this close relation in mind, the RIMS conference Moduli Spaces and Arithmetic Geometry was held at Kyoto University during September 8-15, 2004 as the 13th International Research Institute of the Mathematical Society of Japan. This volume is the outcome of this conference and consists of thirteen papers by invited speakers, including C Soulé, A Beauville and C...
