Mål

Kunskap och förståelse

För godkänd kurs skall doktoranden

• be able to give different conditions for a function of several complex variables to be holomorphic and to explain why they are equivalent.
• be able to account for the theory of domains of holomorphy. In particular be able to give some examples.
• be able to explain how analytic continuation in several variables is different from the situation in one variable, in particular account for some versions of Hartogs’ extension theorem.
• be able to describe the local structure of zero sets of holomorphic functions and how they relate to analytic sets and complex submanifolds.
• be able to explain how pluripotential theory, in particular the study of plurisubharmonic functions, is needed to develop general methods for solving d-bar equations.
• be able to compare and contrast different notions of convexity, in particular geometric convexity and pseudoconvexity.
• be able to give some examples of integral representation formulas for holomorphic functions in several variables.
• be able to give some examples of the relevance of the solvability of d-bar equations.
