Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "This book is devoted to recent progress in the study of curves and abelian varieties. It discusses both classical aspects of this deep and beautiful subject as well as two important new developments, tropical geometry and the theory of log schemes." "In addition to original research articles, this book contains three surveys devoted to singularities of theta divisors. of compactified Jucobiuns of singular curves, and of "strange duality" among moduli spaces of vector bundles on algebraic varieties."--BOOK JACKET.
