Algebraic Surfaces

The Algebraic Surface Homepage has many interesting pictures of algebraic surfaces. A few examples of algebraic surfaces might be familiar from high school: spheres, ellipsoids, hyperboloids. Higher degree surfaces are much more exotic, though. For exmple, check out the septic with 99 singularities.

Another page with galleries is the Cubic Surface Homepage.
