A Geometric Study of the Monodromy of Complex Analytic Surfaces.
Let be a two dimensional totally real submanifold of class in . A continuous map of the closed unit disk into that is holomorphic on the open disk and maps its boundary into is called an analytic disk with boundary in . Given an initial immersed analytic disk with boundary in , we describe the existence and behavior of analytic disks near with boundaries in small perturbations of in terms of the homology class of the closed curve in . We also prove a regularity theorem...
