Five Lectures on Projective Invariants

Algebraic Geometry 2025-05-22 v1

Abstract

We introduce invariant rings for forms (homogeneous polynomials) and for d points on the projective space, from the point of view of representation theory. We discuss several examples, addressing some computational issues. We introduce the graphical algebra for the invariants of d points on the line. This is an expanded version of the notes for the School on Invariant Theory and Projective Geometry, Trento, September 17-22, 2012.
