The project will discuss the basics of algebraic geometry while exploring the concept of Grobner bases. We will study the existence of Grobner bases, how to compute them and a few standard applications to the geometry of algebraic varieties, such as via elimination theory. The project will illustrate the theory via computations in Macaulay2.
