Complex geometry is the study of complex manifolds, complex algebraic varieties, complex analytic spaces, and, by extension, of almost complex structures. It is a part of differential geometry, algebraic geometry and analytic geometry.

A question in Möbius geometry
You seem to imply that the book from which you study does not DEFINE what a Möbius transformation is. Then discard this book and choose another one. Unfortunately the terminology is not settled. The s …

Are real-analytic functions in $\mathbb{R}^2$ holomorphic after suitable change of coordinates?
The answer is negative. For the non-injective case, the reason is that non-constant complex analytic functions are open, discrete maps, while real analytic functions can be neither open nor discrete ( …

Branched covering maps between Riemann surfaces
For infinite degree, the definition of "branched covering" can be somewhat ambiguous. But
$$z\mapsto \cos z: \mathbb{C}\to \mathbb{C}$$
$$\wp: \mathbb{C}\to S$$ are a simple examples of branched cove …

Interesting results for open Riemann surfaces
The results on open Riemann surfaces are not "rare". They are just well forgotten.
I only list a few books which deal with open Riemann surfaces:

Holomorphic Gauss normal map
Gauss map is holomorphic (as a map to the Riemann sphere)
if the surface is minimal. This is Lemma 8.3 in the book of Osserman, A Survey of Minimal Surfaces. In fact, if you replace "embedded" by "imm …

Existence of covering isomorphism
I suppose that "non-compact complex algebraic curve" means complex affine curve.
The following counterexample was proposed by my friend Fedor Pakovich.
Let $D=\mathbf{C}\backslash\{-1,1\}$.
Consider t …

An inf-sup estimate for holomorphic functions
This is not true: take $n=1$, $r=1$, $\eta(z)=e^{az},\; a>0,$
then
$$\max_{z\in B(0,r)}|\eta(z)|=e^a,$$
while
$$\min_{z\in B(0,1)}|\eta(z)|=e^{-a}.$$
Since $a>0$ is arbitrary, no $\kappa$ with require …

Related to the Schwarz Christoffel map
Take a curvilinear quadrilateral $A',B',C',D'$ satisfying all your conditions, that is $[A',B'],[C',D']$ are disjoint arcs
of the unit circle, while the other sides do not belong to the unit circle. Y …

Proof verification for a theorem about a harmonic function on the unit disc
This is a consequence of the Phragmen-Lindelof Principle, whose general formulation is the following: Let $D$ be a bounded region
in the plane, and $\zeta_0\in\partial D$. Let $u$ be a subharmonic fun …

Geometry of critical points of holomorphic maps in projective space
For n=1, every point in the critical divisor has degree $≤d-1$, where $d$ is the degree of the map, and the total degree of the critical divisor is $2d−2$, and any such divisor can occur.
To state it …

Practically calculating the domain of a power series for function of several complex variables
The usual Cauchy-Hadamard formula has a generalization to several variables.
The numbers $r_1,\ldots,r_n$ are called conjugate radii of convergence if the
series converges in the open polydisk $B(r_1, …

How would a topologist explain "every Riemann surface of genus $g$ is hyperelliptic if and o...
A 19th century topologist would explain this by dimension count. By Riemann-Hurwitz, a surface of genus $g$ covering the sphere
with $2$ sheets has $2g+2$ ramification points which gives $2g-1$ free c …
