A cohomological Steinness criterion for holomorphically spreadable complex spaces

Viorel Vâjâitu (2010)

Czechoslovak Mathematical Journal

Let X be a complex space of dimension n , not necessarily reduced, whose cohomology groups H 1 ( X , 𝒪 ) , ... , H n - 1 ( X , 𝒪 ) are of finite dimension (as complex vector spaces). We show that X is Stein (resp., 1 -convex) if, and only if, X is holomorphically spreadable (resp., X is holomorphically spreadable at infinity). This, on the one hand, generalizes a known characterization of Stein spaces due to Siu, Laufer, and Simha and, on the other hand, it provides a new criterion for 1 -convexity.

A combinatorial approach to singularities of normal surfaces

Sandro Manfredini (2003)

Annali della Scuola Normale Superiore di Pisa - Classe di Scienze

In this paper we study generic coverings of 2 branched over a curve s.t. the total space is a normal analytic surface, in terms of a graph representing the monodromy of the covering, called monodromy graph. A complete description of the monodromy graphs and of the local fundamental groups is found in case the branch curve is { x n = y m } (with n m ) and the degree of the cover is equal to n or n - 1 .

A compactification of ( * ) 4 with no non-constant meromorphic functions

Jun-Muk Hwang, Dror Varolin (2002)

Annales de l’institut Fourier

For each 2-dimensional complex torus T , we construct a compact complex manifold X ( T ) with a 2 -action, which compactifies ( * ) 4 such that the quotient of ( * ) 4 by the 2 -action is biholomorphic to T . For a general T , we show that X ( T ) has no non-constant meromorphic functions.

A comparative analysis of Bernstein type estimates for the derivative of multivariate polynomials

Szilárd Gy. Révész (2006)

Annales Polonici Mathematici

We compare the yields of two methods to obtain Bernstein type pointwise estimates for the derivative of a multivariate polynomial in a domain where the polynomial is assumed to have sup norm at most 1. One method, due to Sarantopoulos, relies on inscribing ellipses in a convex domain K. The other, pluripotential-theoretic approach, mainly due to Baran, works for even more general sets, and uses the pluricomplex Green function (the Zaharjuta-Siciak extremal function). When the inscribed ellipse method...

A constant in pluripotential theory

Zbigniew Błocki (1992)

Annales Polonici Mathematici

We compute the constant sup ( 1 / d e g P ) ( m a x S l o g | P | - S l o g | P | d σ ) : P a polynomial in n , where S denotes the euclidean unit sphere in n and σ its unitary surface measure.

A converse to the Andreotti-Grauert theorem

Jean-Pierre Demailly (2011)

Annales de la faculté des sciences de Toulouse Mathématiques

The goal of this paper is to show that there are strong relations between certain Monge-Ampère integrals appearing in holomorphic Morse inequalities, and asymptotic cohomology estimates for tensor powers of holomorphic line bundles. Especially, we prove that these relations hold without restriction for projective surfaces, and in the special case of the volume, i.e. of asymptotic 0 -cohomology, for all projective manifolds. These results can be seen as a partial converse to the Andreotti-Grauert...
