| Jun 7, 2011 at 1:03 | comment | added | MZWang | I have complete the study of Hartshorne II and III, but I have no background (except elementary complex analysis) at analytical aspect. Any references about analytical background for Abelian Varieties are welcome. Thank you very much! | |
| Jun 7, 2011 at 0:58 | comment | added | MZWang | Dear Clark, Mumford used integral in the proof of lemma 1 of chapter I. The conlusion is not clear to me. | |
| Jun 6, 2011 at 13:02 | comment | added | Emerton | As suggested by Charles Matthews's answer below, once you get past the analytic theory of the first chapter, the main prerequisites are a solid understanding of EGA style algebraic geometry (such as you might learn from Hartshorne Chapters II and III). It doesn't seem that realistic to me to read these later chapters without that background. The first chapter is different; for this some analytic background is necessary. Perhaps that is what you want to read, given your analytically oriented take on the prerequisites? | |

| Jun 6, 2011 at 11:53 | comment | added | Pete L. Clark | I am having trouble remembering where harmonic analysis or measure theory comes up in Mumford's Abelian Varieties, even implicitly. How did you determine that these were prerequisites? | |
