Two Applications of Algebraic Geometry to Entire Holomorphic Mappings

  • Conference paper
The Chern Symposium 1979

Abstract

In this paper we shall prove two theorems concerning holomorphic mappings of large open sets of ℂk into algebraic varieties. Both are in response to well-known outstanding problems, and we feel that the techniques introduced should in each case have further applications.
