The main purpose of this volume is to give an exposition of various aspects of meromorphic functions and linear series on algebraic curves, with some emphasis on families of meromorphic functions. It is written in such a wayas to facilitate their applications in other areas of mathematics. Meromorphic functions on a compact Riemann surface, or, more generally, holomorphic curves and linear series, have numerous applications in many different areas of mathematics. This work gives a concise survey of results in the elementary theory of meromorphic functions and divisors on curves, and makes...

This monograph contains an exposition of the theory of minimal surfaces in Euclidean space, with an emphasis on complete minimal surfaces of finite total curvature. Our exposition is based upon the philosophy that the study of finite total curvature complete minimal surfaces in R3, in large measure, coincides with the study of meromorphic functions and linear series on compact Riemann sur- faces. This philosophy is first indicated in the fundamental theorem of Chern and Osserman: A complete minimal surface M immersed in R3 is of finite total curvature if and only if M with its induced...

This volume is an introduction to the theory of Compact Riemann Surfaces and algebraic curves. It gives a concise account of the elementary aspects of different viewpoints in curve theory. Foundational results on divisors and compact Riemann surfaces are also stated and proved.
