On Deformations of Kähler Spaces. I.
Given a compact connected Lie group . For a relatively compact -invariant domain in a Stein -homogeneous space, we prove that the automorphism group of is compact and if is semisimple, a proper holomorphic self mapping of is biholomorphic.
Let be a complex manifold of dimension at least which has an exhaustion function whose Levi form has at each point at least strictly positive eigenvalues. We construct proper holomorphic discs in through any given point and in any given direction.
Let Ω be the spectral unit ball of Mₙ(ℂ), that is, the set of n × n matrices with spectral radius less than 1. We are interested in classifying the automorphisms of Ω. We know that it is enough to consider the normalized automorphisms of Ω, that is, the automorphisms F satisfying F(0) = 0 and F'(0) = I, where I is the identity map on Mₙ(ℂ). The known normalized automorphisms are conjugations. Is every normalized automorphism a conjugation? We show that locally, in a neighborhood of a matrix with...
