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.

Holomorphic map from a neighborhood in $\mathbb C$ to S^3

Suppose such a map exists and is non-constant. Let $f,g$ be its components. By composing the map with a holomorphic function on the right and with an element of $U(2)$ on the left, we can assume that …

Does there exist a complex Lie group G such that ...

Let me show that such a group, if it exists, can't be algebraic. Any complex algebraic group $G$ is an extension of an abelian variety $A$ by an affine group $H$, i.e. we have an exact sequence $1\to …

Strong Kodaira vanishing

Re question 1: yes, see Deligne, Cohomologie des intersections compl`etes, SGA 7 II, th\'eor`eme 1.1. The proof is by "force brutale" as Deligne himself puts it, so I'm not sure this generalizes.

Extending holomorphic functions

Suppose $K\subset \mathbb{C}^n$ is a compact subset and $f:\mathbb{C}^n\setminus K\to \mathbb{C}$ is a holomorphic function. Then, provided $n>1$, $f$ extends to a holomorphic function defined on the …

Hodge theory for quasi-Kaehler manifolds: where does it break down?

Let $U$ be the complement of a divisor with normal crossings in a smooth compact complex manifold $X$. If $X$ is algebraic, then Deligne describes in "Th\'eorie de Hodge 2" a procedure to equip the ra …

Lefschetz hyper-plane theorem for singular projective varieties?

I think what you are looking for is the Lefschetz hyperplane theorem for singular varieties from Goresky and MacPherson's " Stratified Morse theory" (part II, section 1.2). The range in which there is …

Complex analytic space with no (positive dim.) subscheme ?

Take a complex 2-torus $X$ without curves, and hence, without non-constant meromorphic functions (see e.g. Shafarevich, Basic algebraic geometry, chapter VIII, \S 1, example 2). The only locally close …

On bounded homogeneous connected domains of C^n

Re question 3: a bounded homogeneous domain is biholomorphic to a Siegel domain, which is contractible. See e.g. Siegel domain and references therein (those references probably answer question 2 as we …

Does passing through a point in general position cut down the dimension by one?

Q1: In general no: take $X$ to be the subvariety of $P^{\delta_d\vee}$, the dual of $P^{\delta_d}$, formed by all $H_p$'s. Note that $X$ is just the image of the Veronese map $\mathbb{P}(V)\to\mathbb{ …

Is there a complex structure on the 6-sphere?

If such a complex structure exists, it would weird indeed! For example, as shown by Campana, Demailly and Peternell (Compositio 112, 77-91), if such a thing exists, then $S^6$ would have no non-consta …

Nonalgebraic complex manifolds

The simplest example of a complex analytic non-algebraic manifold (and hence, non-projective) is probably the Hopf surface. Indeed, any smooth complete complex algebraic variety, projective or not, is …

Algebraic de Rham cohomology vs. analytic de Rham cohomology

This does follow from GAGA via the spectral sequences associated to the dumb filtrations on the algebraic and analytic de Rham complexes of sheaves, see p. 96 of tome 29 of PMIHES in a paper of Grothe …

A topological consequence of Riemann-Roch in the almost complex case

This question originated from a conversation with Dmitry that took place here Is there a complex structure on the 6-sphere? The Hirzebruch-Riemann-Roch formula expresses the Euler characteristic of …

Relation between sheaf and group cohomology

I doubt that in general one can construct a reasonable sheaf on $U$ with the required properties. To see what kind of bad things can happen, let us try to understand why this works for $X$ an elliptic …
