We show that if $X$ is a Stein space and, if $\Omega \subset X$ is exhaustable by a sequence $\Omega_1 \subset \Omega_2 \subset \ldots \subset \Omega_n \subset \ldots$ of open Stein subsets of $X$, then $\Omega$ is Stein. This generalizes a…

In this article, we prove that if $\Pi: X\rightarrow \Omega$ is an unbranched Riemann domain with $\Omega$ Stein of dimension $n$ and $\Pi$ a locally $q$-complete morphism, then $X$ is cohomologically $q$-complete if $n\geq 3$ and $1\leq…

In section 1, we show that if $X$ is a Stein normal complex space of dimension n and $D\subset \subset X$ an open subset which is the union of an increasing sequence $D_{1}\subset D_{2}\subset ...\subset D_{n}\subset >...$ of domains of…

We discuss the well-known open problems: the local Steiness problem and the union problem.

A complex space $X$ is in class ${\mathcal Q}_G$ if it is a semistable quotient of the complement to an analytic subset of a Stein manifold by a holomorphic action of a reductive complex Lie group $G$. It is shown that every pseudoconvex…

Recall that a topological space is said to be a $k_\omega$-space if it is the direct limit of an ascending sequence of compact Hausdorff topological spaces. If each point in a Hausdorff space $X$ has an open neighbourhood which is a…

In this article, we prove that if $\Pi: X\to \Omega$ is a surjective holomorphic map, with $\Omega$ a Stein space and $X$ a complex manifold of dimension $n\geq 3,$ and if, for every $x\in \Omega$ there exists an open neighborhood $U$ such…

Let $X$ be an integral scheme of finite presentation over a perfect field. Let $q$ be a singular closed point of $X$. We prove that there exists an open subset $V$ of $X$ containing $q$ such that $V$ admits a resolution, that is, there…

We show that the sheaves of algebras of generalized functions $\Omega\to \mathcal{G}(\Omega)$ and $\Omega\to \mathcal{G}^{\infty}(\Omega)$, $\Omega$ are open sets in a manifold $X$, are supple, contrary to the non-suppleness of the sheaf of…

A topological space $X$ is a $\Delta$-space (or $X \in \Delta$) if for any decreasing sequence $\{A_n : n < \omega\}$ of subsets of $X$ with empty intersection there is a (decreasing) sequence $\{U_n : n < \omega\}$ of open sets with empty…

We discuss the evidence for and implications of a conjecture that the universal abelian cover of a Q-Gorenstein surface singularity with finite local homology (i.e., the singularity link is a Q-homology sphere) is a complete intersection…

With an assumption on the codimension of the singular locus of a complex hypersurface $D$ in smooth variety $X$, we show that if $\underline{\Omega}^m_D \cong \Omega^m_D$, then $\underline{\Omega}^i_D \cong \Omega^i_D$ for all $0 \leq i…

Let X be an irreducible reduced complex space on which a connected compact Lie group K acts by holomorphic automorphisms. Let G be the complexification of K and g the Lie algebra of G. Following the theory of algebraic transformation…

Let $(\Omega,\Sigma,\mu)$ be a measure space and $1< p < +\infty$. In this paper we show that, under quite general conditions, the set $L_{p}(\Omega) - \bigcup\limits_{1 \leq q < p}L_{q}(\Omega)$ is maximal spaceable, that is, it contains…

Let $X$ be a compact complex manifold of dimension $n$ and let $m$ be a positive integer with $m\leq n$. Assume that $X$ admits a K\"ahler metric $\omega$ and a weakly positive, $\partial\bar\partial$-closed, smooth $(n-m,\,n-m)$-form…

We consider a smooth boundary b\Omega which is q-convex in the sense that its Levi-form has positive trace on every complex q-plane. We prove that b\Omega is tangent of infinite order to the complexification of each of its submanifolds…

Our main theorem states that the complement of a compact holomorphically convex set in a Stein manifold with the density property is an Oka manifold. This gives a positive answer to the well-known long-standing problem in Oka theory whether…

Let $X$ be a nonempty set and let $T(X)$ be the full transformation semigroup on $X$. The main objective of this paper is to study the subsemigroup $\overline{\Omega}(X, Y)$ of $T(X)$ defined by \[\overline{\Omega}(X, Y) = \{f\in T(X)\colon…

Let $G$ be a unimodular Lie group, $X$ a compact manifold with boundary, and $M$ the total space of a principal bundle $G\to M\to X$ so that $M$ is also a strongly pseudoconvex complex manifold. In this work, we show that if $G$ acts by…
