We prove that given an open Riemann surface $N,$ there exists an open domain $M\subset N$ homeomorphic to $N$ which properly holomorphically embeds in $\mathbb{C}^2.$ Furthermore, $M$ can be chosen with hyperbolic conformal type. In…

A Stein covering of a complex manifold may be used to realise its analytic cohomology in accordance with the Cech theory. If, however, the Stein covering is parameterised by a smooth manifold rather than just a discrete set, then we…

Suppose that Y is a complex manifold with the property that any holomorphic map from a compact convex set in a complex Euclidean space C^n (for any n) to Y is a uniform limit of entire maps from C^n to Y. We prove that a holomorphic map…

An open Riemann surface is called parabolic in case every bounded subharmonic function on it reduces to a constant. Several authors introduced seemingly different analogs of this notion for Stein manifolds of arbitrary dimension. In the…

We prove that every continuous map from a Stein manifold X to a complex manifold Y can be made holomorphic by a homotopic deformation of both the map and the Stein structure on X. In the absence of topological obstructions the holomorphic…

The set of all closed subgroups of a profinite carries a natural profinite topology. This space of subgroups can be classified up to homeomorphism in many cases, and tight bounds placed on its complexity as expressed by its scattered…

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…

We characterize open embeddings of Stein spaces and of $C^\infty$-manifolds in terms of certain flatness-type conditions on the respective homomorphisms of function algebras.

We show that if the group of holomorphic automorphisms of a connected Stein manifold $M$ is isomorphic to that of ${\bf C}^n$ as a topological group equipped with the compact-open topology, then $M$ is biholomorphically equivalent to ${\bf…

Let $X$ be a topological space, $U$ -- opened subset of $X$. We will say that point $x \in \partial U$ is {\it accessible} from $U$ if there exists continuous injective mapping $\phi : I \to \Cl D$ such that $\phi(1)=x$, $\phi([0,1))…

Let $p$ be a branched covering of a Riemann surface to the Riemann sphere $\mathbb{P}^1$, with branching set $B \subset \mathbb{P}^1$. We define the complexity of $p$ as infinity, if $\mathbb{P}^1 \setminus B$ does not admit a hyperbolic…

It is proved that an unbranched Riemann domain $\Pi : X\rightarrow Y$ over an arbitrary Stein complex space of dimension $n\geq 2$ is Stein if and only if $X$ is cohomologically $2$-complete with respect to the structure sheaf…

The disk complex of a surface in a 3-manifold is used to define its {\it topological index}. Surfaces with well-defined topological index are shown to generalize well-known classes, such as incompressible, strongly irreducible, and critical…

By open neighbourhood of an open subset $\Omega$ of $\mathbb{R}^n$ we mean an open subset $\Omega'$ of $\mathbb{C}^n$ such that $\mathbb{R}^n\cap\Omega'=\Omega.$ A well known result of H. Grauert implies that any open subset of…

We study the existence of incompressible embeddings of surfaces into the genus two handlebody. We show that for every compact surface with boundary, orientable or not, there is an incompressible embedding of the surface into the genus two…

We show that except for $n = 2$ if a bridge surface for a knot is an index $n$ topologically minimal surface, then after a perturbation it is still topologically minimal with index at most $n+1$.

We study exotic smoothings of open 4-manifolds using the minimal genus function and its analog for end homology. While traditional techniques in open 4-manifold smoothing theory give no control of minimal genera, we make progress by using…

Let Z be a complex space and let S be a compact set in C^n x Z which is fibered over R^n (the real subspace of C^n). We give a necessary and sufficient condition for S to be a Stein compactum.

From any 4-dimensional oriented handlebody X without 3- and 4-handles and with b_2>0, we construct arbitrary many compact Stein 4-manifolds which are mutually homeomorphic but not diffeomorphic to each other, so that their topological…

An open set in C^n is pseudoconvex if and only if its intersection with every affine subspace of complex dimension two as seen as an open set in C^2 is pseudoconvex.
