  • Stein manifolds and holomorphic mappings : the homotopy principle in complex analysis
    Forstnerič, Franc, 1958-
    From Preface: This book is an attempt to present a coherent account of Oka theory, from the classical Oka-Grauert theory originating in the works of Kiyoshi Oka and Hans Grauert to the contemporary ... developments initiated by Mikhael Gromov. Chapter 1 contains some preparatory material, and Chapter 2 is a brief survey of Stein space theory. In Chapter 3 we construct open Stein neighborhoods of certain types of sets in complex spaces that are used in Oka theory. Chapter 4 contains an exposition of the theory of holomorphic automorphisms of Euclidean spaces and of the density property, a subject closely intertwined with our main theme. In Chapter 5 we develop Oka theory for stratified fiber bundles with Oka fibers (this includes the classical Oka-Grauert theory), and in Chapter 6 we treat Oka-Gromov theory for stratified subelliptic submersions over Stein spaces. Chapters 7 and 8 contain applications ranging from classical to the recent ones. In Chapter 8 we present results on regular holomorphic maps of Stein manifolds; highlights include the optimal embedding theorems for Stein manifolds and Stein spaces, proper holomorphic embeddings of some bordered Riemann surfaces into ▫${\mathbb C}^2$▫, and the construction of noncritical holomorphic functions, submersions and foliations on Stein manifolds. In Chapter 9 we explore implications of Seiberg-Witten theory to the geometry of Stein surfaces, and we present the Eliashberg-Gompf construction of Stein structures on manifolds with suitable handlebody decomposition.
