Below are various notes for classes or seminars and expository papers (these also appear on the publications page).

Notes:

  1. Notes on convex surfaces from a contact geomety class. Last revised July 2004 (very rough form!) pdf and ps.gz
  2. Very basic notes on sheaves and divisors. These were from a series of seminars I gave as a graduate student some time in the early 90's. These should definitely be used at your own risk! pdf and ps.gz
