On Totally Real Non-Compact Manifolds Globally Foliated by Analytic Discs

  • Chapter
Partial Differential and Integral Equations

Abstract

We prove the existence of analytic discs with boundaries in a non- compact target manifold (MT x ℂ2) without exceptional points. It is shown that the manifolds M in the considered class are globally foliated by the solutions of related Riemann-Hilbert problems. The proof is based on a fixed-point equation for a compact operator and utilizes uniform norm estimates for the inverses of related Toeplitz operators.
