Kodaira Vanishing and Formal Schemes

Abstract:

I will give an overview of Kodaira's vanishing theorem and its applications in higher-dimensional algebraic geometry. I will then proceed to give an introduction to formal schemes and their applications. Then I will state a version of the vanishing theorem for formal schemes, along with some possible further results to be investigated.
