Hyper Geometric Functions, My Love: Modular Interpretations of Configuration Spaces (Aspects of Mathematics)

This volume concentrates on hypergeometric functions, starting from the elementary level of equivalence relations to the exponential function. Topics covered include: the configuration space of four points on the projective line; elliptic curves; elliptic modular functions and the theta functions; spaces of six points in the projective plain; K3 surfaces; and theta functions in four variables.
