The course aims to give a brief introduction to basic notions and techniques in complex differential geometry and complex algebraic geometry. We would follow mostly the first few chapters of Griffiths and Harris' book.
Topics will include: basic sheaf theory, Hermitian and Kaehler metrics, Chern
classes, the Kodaira embedding theorem, the Kodaira (Akizuki-Nakano) vanishing
theorem, Lefschetz theorem on (1,1)-classes, complex curves and surfaces.
