Hi All,
Lecture 3 recording and slides are up. Those who missed the class, please listen to the lecture before next week. Next week's lecture will not be self contained and will depend on an understanding of today's lecture.

The main reference is Stichtenoth's book "Algebraic function fields and codes", listed in the course description.
Silverman's text book, "Arithmetic of elliptic curves" is another excellent source for projective coordinates, curves, function fields, divisors, Riemann-Roch etc..
After next week's lecture, I shall list pointers to applications and prospective project topics on algebraic geometry codes.
