Student Lectures - All lectures - Algebraic Curves, Lecture 1: Introduction to projective geometry. 3rd Year Student Lecture

In the first of four lectures we are showing from Dominic Joyce's third year course on Algebraic Curves, we focus on projective geometry, covering projective and affine spaces, homogeneous and inhomogeneous coordinates and a simple proof in projective geometry. You can watch the other lectures from the course here: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL4d5ZtfQonW1Gtcp0w1wCS9PKcxipWaEO You can watch many other student lectures via our main Student Lectures playlist (also check out specific student lectures playlists): https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL4d5ZtfQonW0A4VHeiY0gSkX1QEraaacE All first and second year lectures are followed by tutorials where students meet their tutor in pairs to go through the lecture and associated problem sheet and to talk and think more about the maths. Third and fourth year lectures are followed by classes.
