Summary

Without an introduction, this volume of 19 papers plunges right into the subject matter presented at the June 1998 symposium held at Bayreuth U. in Bayreuth, Germany. A sampling of topics: almost-lines and quasi-lines on projective manifolds, the classification of K3 surfaces with nine cusps, simply connected Godeaux surfaces, Kahlerian structures on symplectic reductions, and A geometric proof of Ax' theorem. One paper is in untranslated French. Includes an essay on Michael Schneider's scientific work with a publications list (including his still standard reference on vector bundles on projective spaces); a photograph and "alpine" vita of Schneider (who died while sports-climbing in 1997); a list of the eight symposium lectures; and a listing of the authors and participants with contact information. Lacks an index.
