Snazzy applications of Several Complex Variables techniques

I am starting to dive into a study of Several Complex Variables. I would like to have a few guiding examples of "big payoffs". These should be very natural sounding theorems which depend on a lot of …

What is the "complex third derivative"?

Background I am including this information about real higher order derivatives because it does not seem to be common knowledge. I also include a review of the complex Hessian. If $f:\mathbb{R}^n \t …

How does pseudoconvexity restrict the topology?

A domain of holomorphy in $\mathbb{C}^n$ has vanishing de rham cohomology in real dimensions greater than $n$ - half of it's cohomology is missing. Are there any other restrictions? If I give you a …

Can all $L^2$ holomorphic functions on a domain vanish at a particular point?

Let $\Omega \subset \mathbb{C}^n$. Is it possible that there is a point $p \in \Omega$ such that every $f \in A^2(\Omega) = L^2(\Omega) \cap \mathcal{O}(\Omega)$ has a zero at $p$? The space $A^2(\ …

Computing Dolbeault cohomology of some simple domains

I have seen computations of the Dolbeault cohomology groups on compact Kahler manifolds using Hodge theory. I have never seen the computation of Dolbeault cohomology for simple domains in $\mathbb{C} …

Another proof of the bidisc and the ball are biholomorphically inequivalent?

Does this outline of a proof work? Consider the ball and the bidisc in $\mathbb{C}^2$. Give each space its Bergman metric. To show that the ball and the bidisc are not holomorphic, it is enough to …

Reference for the converse of Cartan's Theorem B

Cartan's theorem B states that every coherent analytic sheaf on a Stein manifold is acyclic. Hartshorne claims that the converse to this theorem also holds, but doesn't supply a reference. Does anyo …

Does the "Ohsawa-Takegoshi theorem without bounds" have a name?

There are many theorems which now could be called "The Ohsawa-Takegoshi" theorem. Of these, the most basic is roughly the following: Let $\Omega \subset \subset \mathbb{C}^n$ be a psuedoconvex domai …

Lifting quadratic forms on the cotangent bundle to higher level forms

Backround In several complex variables, an essential tool is Hormander's machinery for solving the $\overline{\partial}$ problem with $L^2$ estimates. If $\alpha$ is a $(p,q+1)$ form on a domain $\O …
