Stein and Weinstein Manifolds - An Introduction to Topological and Symplectic Aspects
Offered By: Institut des Hautes Etudes Scientifiques (IHES) via YouTube
Course Description
Overview
Explore the fascinating world of Stein manifolds in this 50-minute lecture by Kai Cieliebak from the University of Augsburg, presented at the Institut des Hautes Etudes Scientifiques (IHES). Delve into the theory of several complex variables and discover the topological and symplectic aspects of Stein manifolds. Learn about the handlebody construction of Stein manifolds and their symplectic counterparts, Weinstein manifolds. Examine the concepts of flexibility (h-principles) and rigidity in this context. Gain an informal yet insightful introduction to these complex mathematical structures and their significance in the field of complex geometry.
