# ANAGRAMS

Student seminar

## Goal

We will discuss weighted projective spaces (and weighted projective varieties), and their relationship to stacks.

Topics that we intend to cover:

• local structure of weighted projective spaces
• varieties in weighted projective spaces
• weighted projective lines (which are not weighted projective spaces, despite their name)
