From the reviews of Vols. I-III: "Since their publication in 1986
J-P. Serre's "Collected Papers" have already become one of the
classical references in mathematical research. This is on the one
hand due to the completeness of the collection (132 items) and on
the other, of course, due to the beautiful and clear expositions of
Serre's papers and their influence on mathematics. As listed in the
preface, the three volumes cover almost all articles published in
mathematical journals between 1949 and 1984, the summaries of the
author's courses at the College de France since 1956, some of his
Seminaire notes, and some items not previously published. [...] The
author's notes at the end of each volume giving corrections and
important recent progress as well as improvements of the main
results represent a highlight of this collection. The mathematical
community definitely looks forward to further volume(s) of Serre's
outstanding work.""Zentralblatt MATH""These volumes collect almost
all of the research and expository papers of J.-P. Serre published
in mathematical journals through 1984, as well as some of his
seminar reports, and a few items not previously published. ....
Throughout his writings, Serre has liberally sprinkled open
questions and conjectures. Most endnotes list subsequent progress
made on these questions or improvements to the main results of the
papers. Some make additional comments, and a few are corrections.
These endnotes alone justify the publication of the collected
works. Serre is one of the masters of mathematical
exposition...."
