Real Submanifolds in Complex Space and Their Mappings (Pms-47)Hardcover, 17 January 1999

This book presents many of the main developments of the past two decades in the study of real submanifolds in complex space, providing crucial background material for researchers and advanced graduate students. The techniques in this area borrow from real and complex analysis, partial differential equations, as well as differential, algebraic, and analytical geometry. In turn, these latter areas have been enriched over the years by the study of problems in several complex variables addressed here. The authors include extensive preliminary material to make the book accessible to nonspecialists.
