Schwarz-type lemmas for solutions of -inequalities and complete hyperbolicity of almost complex manifolds
The definition of the Kobayashi-Royden pseudo-metric for almost complex manifolds is similar to its definition for complex manifolds. We study the question of completeness of some domains for this metric. In particular, we study the completeness of the complement of submanifolds of co-dimension 1 or 2. The paper includes a discussion, with proofs, of basic facts in the theory of pseudo-holomorphic discs.
