1) Prerequisites.
Algebraic Geometry 1, Commutative algebra. The language of modules and categories (for example as in the Intensive Course offered as video lectures in mastermath).
2) Aim of the course.
To offer basic knowledge of sheaves, schemes and cohomology. We also intend to provide more background where needed and to discuss some applications
3) Homework.
There will be homeworks, but they will not count for a grade. Instead, roughly 2 out of 4 or 5 problems of the final exam will be a random choice of these homeworks. There will be a TA for this course, and upon request of the student he can give feedback on their homework.
4) Exam.
The final grade will be based 100% on the final exam. This final exam will be a written exam.
