Abstract

We study the deformation space of an embedded J-holomorphic disc D in an almost complex surface (X,J). Every such J is shown to be equivalent to a small deformation of a certain model structure J β along D, where β : D→ℂ is a complex valued function whose modulus |β| is a biholomorphic invariant. Furthermore, we find a nonlinear invertible operator mapping the space of all small J-holomorphic deformations of the given J-holomorphic disc onto the space of small holomorphic deformations of the standard disc in ℂ2.
