unusual facts about holomorphic



Global section functor

Let \mathcal O X be the sheaf of holomorphic functions on the compact connected complex manifold X, then by the maximum principle, global sections are constant, ie. \Gamma (X, \mathcal O X) = \mathbb C

Grunsky's theorem

In mathematics, Grunsky's theorem, due to the German mathematician Helmut Grunsky, is a result in complex analysis concerning holomorphic univalent functions defined on the unit disk in the complex numbers.

Holomorphic function

The word "holomorphic" was introduced by two of Cauchy's students, Briot (1817–1882) and Bouquet (1819–1895), and derives from the Greek ὅλος (holos) meaning "entire", and μορφή (morphē) meaning "form" or "appearance".

Veech surface

In mathematics, a Veech surface is a translation surface (X,ω) (a Riemann surface X with a holomorphic 1-form ω) whose group SL(X,ω) of affine diffeomorphisms is a lattice in SL2(R) (a discrete subgroup of cofinite volume).
