We will study the basic theory of complex algebraic curves. There are two main topics: (1) the Hodge decomposition of the cohomology, which leads to the Jacobian, the Abel-Jacobi map and the Torelli theorem; and (2) the canonical model which studied using the cohomology of line bundles. These two topics are closely related by the Gauss map of Abel-Jacobi image.
