Good source to learn about surface singularities?

I am looking for something that treats singularities on algebraic surfaces and curves over $\mathbb{C}$, starting from the very basics but not stopping there. I checked out Miles Reid his lectures on ...

Are vector bundles on $\mathbb{P}_{\mathbb{C}}^n$ of any rank completely classified? (main interest $n=3$)

It is very well known that the group of line bundles on $\mathbb{P}_{\mathbb{C}}^n$ is exactly $\mathbb{Z}$. Are bundles of higher rank classified as well? If so, could anyone provide a nice ...

Moduli Spaces of Higher Dimensional Complex Tori

I know that the space of all complex 1-tori (elliptic curves) is modeled by $SL(2, \mathbb{R})$ acting on the upper half plane. There are many explicit formulas for this action. Similarly, I have ...

global irreducible decomposition of an analytic set

Let $M$ be a complex manifold (or a complex analityc space) and $Z$ be an analytic subset of $M$. By Noetherianity of the rings of germs of analytic functions at a point we know that $Z$ has finitely ...

are fibres of a flat bijective map reduced?

Let $f: X \to Y$ be a flat map of algebraic varieties or of complex analytic spaces which is bijective on closed points (or just bijective in the secnond case). Suppose both $X$ and $Y$ are reduced. ...

Deformation of the Kähler structure on $CP^n$

Using the homogeneous coordinate on $CP^n$, we consider the open set $U_0:=\{[1, \ldots, z_n]\}$. Then the standard Kähler form of $CP^n$ can be written as $$ ...

Proof of Moisezon Theorem

We call a compact complex manifold Moisezon manifold, if its dimension coincides with the algebraic dimension, i.e. it has as many algebraically independent meromorphical functions as its complex ...
