Symplectic 4-Manifolds and Algebraic Surfaces - Auroux, Denis a Catanese, Fabrizio a Manetti, Marco a Seidel, Paul a Siebert, Bernd a Smith, Ivan a Tian, Gang

Modern approaches to the study of symplectic 4-manifolds and algebraic surfaces combine a wide range of techniques and sources of inspiration. This book presents methods for the study of moduli spaces of complex structures on algebraic surfaces, and for the investigation of symplectic topology in dimension 4 and higher.
