Hyperbolicity of Projective Hypersurfaces

• Gebundenes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

Thisbook presents recent advances on Kobayashi hyperbolicity in complex geometry,especially in connection with projective hypersurfaces. This is a very activefield, not least because of the fascinating relations with complex algebraicand arithmetic geometry. Foundational works of Serge Lang and Paul A. Vojta,among others, resulted in precise conjectures regarding the interplay of theseresearch fields (e.g. existence of Zariski dense entire curves shouldcorrespond to the (potential) density of rational points).

Perhapsone of the conjectures which generated most activity in Kobayashi hyperbolicitytheory is the one formed by Kobayashi himself in 1970 which predicts that avery general projective hypersurface of degree large enough does not containany (non-constant) entire curves. Since the seminal work of Green and Griffithsin 1979, later refined by J.-P. Demailly, J. Noguchi, Y.-T. Siu and others, itbecame clear that a possible general strategy to attack this problem was tolook at particular algebraic differential equations (jet differentials) thatevery entire curve must satisfy. This has led to some several spectacularresults. Describing the state of the art around this conjecture is the maingoal of this work.
