We present an example of a complex manifold X-in fact, a pseudoconvex open set in C 2-such that X is not Kobayashi-hyperbolic, but any holomorphic map from the punctured unit disk to X extends to a map from the whole unit disk to X. 0. Introduction. Let X be a complex manifold. We say that X has the D *-extension property (D *-EP) iff for any holomorphic map f from D * = {z ∈ C : 0 < |z| < 1} to X, there exists a mapf ∈ Hol(D,X) (where D = {z ∈ C : |z| < 1}) such thatf | D * = f. Kwack [4] and Thai [8] proved that in the case where X is compact, then the D *-EP is equivalent to hyperbolicity in the sense of Kobayashi, as well as in the sense of Brody (see precise definitions below). If X is not assumed to be compact, X = D * , f (z) = z provides an immediate example of a hyperbolic (indeed, complete hyperbolic) manifold which does not have the D *-EP. But if X has the D *-EP, then it must be Brody-hyperbolic [8]. The purpose of this note is to give an example of a complex manifold X (in fact, an open set in C 2) which has the D *-EP but is not Kobayashihyperbolic. Note that our example is pseudo-convex, and in fact any Riemann domain spread over C n having the D *-EP must be pseudo-convex. Whether an arbitrary complex manifold X having the D *-EP is also pseudoconvex, or verifies the Kontinuitätssatz, is an interesting open problem.

In this note we prove that a complex manifold X is Kobayashi hyperbolic if and only if the space Hol(A, X) of holomorphic maps of the unit disk A into X is relatively compact (with respect to the compact-open topology) in the space C(A, X*) of continuous maps from A into the onepoint compactification X" of I.

We discuss the Carathéodory and Kobayashi pseudometrics and their infinitesimal forms on complex Banach manifolds. Our discussiion includes a very elementary treatment of the Kobayashi pseudometric as an integral of its infinitesimal form. We also prove new distortion theorems for the Carathéodory pseudometric under holomorphic maps from the open unit disk to a complex Banach manifold.

Recently, the first examples of compact, simply connected essentially holomorphically pseudosymmetric K\"ahlerian manifolds are discovered by W. Jelonek. In his examples, the structure functions change their signs on the manifold.

Using the concept of inner integral curves defined by Hirschowitz we generalize a recent result by Kim, Levenberg and Yamaguchi concerning the obstruction of a pseudoconvex domain spread over a complex homogeneous manifold to be Stein. This is then applied to study the holomorphic reduction of pseudoconvex complex homogeneous manifolds X = G/H. Under the assumption that G is solvable or reductive we prove that X is the total space of a G-equivariant holomorphic fiber bundle over a Stein manifold such that all holomorphic functions on the fiber are constant.

We define the Kobayashi quotient of a complex variety by identifying points with vanishing Kobayashi pseudodistance between them and show that if a compact complex manifold has an automorphism whose order is infinite, then the fibers of this quotient map are nontrivial. We prove that the Kobayashi quotients associated to ergodic complex structures on a compact manifold are isomorphic. We also give a proof of Kobayashi's conjecture on the vanishing of the pseudodistance for hyperk\"ahler manifolds having Lagrangian fibrations without multiple fibers in codimension one. For a hyperbolic automorphism of a hyperk\"ahler manifold, we prove that its cohomology eigenvalues are determined by its Hodge numbers, compute its dynamical degree and show that its cohomological trace grows exponentially, giving estimates on the number of its periodic points.

Any p r o p e r holomorphic self-map of polydisk U n ~ C n is rational [1]. This mapping, of course, may not be in a one-to-one manner, i. e. , it is biholomorphic. Eisenman in [2] proved that proper rational selfmapping of the ball B n ~ C n (n > 1) is biholomorphic. Such a difference of a ball from the polydisk is apparently explained by a strict pseudoconvexity of the bali. In this work we shall emphasize the results of Eisenman by proving that if D 1 and D 2 are strictly pseud0convex domains in C n, then proper holomorphie mapping 1: D~-*.Dz, (1) which is extended to mapping f : I) i-* I~ 2 of class C', is locally biholomorphic. If apart from this, D i = D2, the mapping f is biholomorphic. We shall note that at D~ # D 2, mapping (1), generally speaking, may not 9 be globally biholomorphic. F o r example, domains D 1 = {z ~ C 2 : Iz 112 + Iz 214 + Iz z t-4 > 3} and D 2 = {z 6 C 2 : Iz 112 + Iz2l 2 + Iz2 I-2 < 3} are strictly pseudoconvex, and the proper holomorphic mapping f = (fl, f2): D1 ~ D2, fl(z) = zl, f2(z) = z~ is not biholomorphic.

This paper deals with regularity properties of the infinitesimal form of the Kobayashi pseudo-distance. This form is shown to be upper semicontinuous in the parameters of a deformation of a complex manifold. The method of proof involves the use of a parametrized version of the Newlander-Nirenberg Theorem together with a theorem of Royden on extending regular mappings from polydiscs into complex manifolds. Various consequences and improvements of this result are discussed; for example, if the manifold is compact hyperbolic the infinitesimal Kobayashi metric is continuous on the union of the holomorphic tangent bundles of the fibers of the deformation. This result leads to the fact that the coarse moduli space of a compact hyperbolic manifold is Hausdorff. Finally, the infinitesimal form is studied for a class of algebraic manifolds which contains algebraic manifolds of general type. It is shown that the form is continuous on the tangent bundle of a manifold in this class. Many member...

For compact Kählerian manifolds, the holomorphic pseudosymmetry reduces to the local symmetry if additionally the scalar curvature is constant and the structure function is non-negative. Similarly, the holomorphic Ricci-pseudosymmetry reduces to the Ricci-symmetry under these additional assumptions. We construct examples of non-compact essentially holomorphically pseudosymmetric Kählerian manifolds. These examples show that the compactness assumption cannot be omitted in the above stated theorem. Recently, the first examples of compact, simply connected essentially holomorphically pseudosymmetric Kählerian manifolds are discovered in [4]. In these examples, the structure functions change their signs on the manifold.

Our aim in this paper is to characterize smooth domains (D, J) and (D , J) in almost complex manifolds of real dimension 2n + 2 with a covering orbit { f k (p)}, accumulating at a strongly pseudoconvex boundary point, for some (J, J)-holomorphic coverings f k : (D, J) → (D , J) and p ∈ D. It was shown that such domains are both biholomorphic to a model domain, if the source domain (D, J) admits a bounded strongly Jplurisubharmonic exhaustion function. Furthermore, if the target domain (D , J) is strongly pseudoconvex, then both (D, J) and (D , J) are biholomorphic to the unit ball in C n+1 with the standard complex structure. Our results can be considered as compactness theorems for sequences of pseudo-holomorphic coverings.

Following T.-J. Li, W. Zhang , we continue to study the link between the cohomology of an almost-complex manifold and its almost-complex structure. In particular, we apply the same argument in and the results obtained by D. Sullivan in to study the cone of semi-Kähler structures on a compact semi-Kähler manifold.

Pseudoconvexity of a domain in C n is described in terms of the existence of a locally defined plurisubharmonic/holomorphic function near any boundary point that is unbounded at the point.

Let p : X → Y be a surjective holomorphic mapping between Kähler manifolds. Let D be a bounded smooth domain in X such that every generic fiber D y := D ∩ p -1 (y) for y ∈ Y is a strongly pseudoconvex domain in X y := p -1 (y), which admits the complete Kähler-Einstein metric. This family of Kähler-Einstein metrics induces a smooth (1, 1)-form ρ on D. In this paper, we prove that ρ is positive-definite on D if D is strongly pseudoconvex. We also discuss the extensioin of ρ as a positive current across singular fibers.
We prove that the core of a complex manifold X is the union of pairwise disjoint pseudoconcave sets on which all uniformly bounded continuous plurisubharmonic functions on X are constant. Similarly, the minimal kernel of a weakly complete complex manifold decomposes into the union of compact pseudoconcave sets on which all continuous plurisub-harmonic functions are constant. Versions of these results for standard smoothness classes are obtained. Analogous facts are discussed in the context of Richberg's regularization of continuous strongly plurisubharmonic functions.

Our goal here is to prove that each point in an almost-complex surface has a basis of complete hyperbolic neighborhoods. The problem is local, and therefore we can consider the case when our surface is R 4 with an arbitrary almost-complex structure J. Throughout this paper, almost-complex structures are assumed to be of class C 1,α for some 0 < α < 1. Let C be some non-singular J-complex curve passing through the origin.

The purpose of this paper is to study the hyperbolicity and the tautness of spaces that have the Schottky property. Moreover, the hyperbolicity of compact complex spaces is characterized by the classical theorem of Bloch.
