Mumford: Geometric Invariant Theory

What changed

Organized invariant-theoretic quotients through stable and semistable loci for algebraic-geometric moduli problems.

Scientific scope

The record targets the sole-author first edition of 1965. Later enlarged editions coauthored with John Fogarty and Frances Kirwan, as well as later refinements and applications, are distinct works and are not attributed to this first-edition record.
