Abstract
Call a smooth knot (or smooth link) in the unit sphere in analytic (respectively, smoothly analytic) if it bounds a complex curve (respectively, a smooth complex curve) in the complex ball. Let be a smoothly analytic knot. For a small tubular neighbourhood of we give a sharp lower bound for the 4-ball genus of analytic links contained in it.
